[quote=Anonymous]We have a 19 Year old cat.  For the past 19 years, she has not consistently peed in the litter box.  As you can imagine, this has caused great stress, significant marital tensions, unsanitary conditions for my kids, and our basement is ruined and will have to be totally redone after she dies.  We have been to a variety of different vets, and have done all sorts of things, none of them work.

Last year, she got extremely constipated and we spent $3000 in vet and hospital bills getting her cleaned out.  The vet gave us medicine that didn’t work and she immediately started getting backed up again.  As a last ditch effort I gave her miralax and it worked.  So we’ve been giving her that for the past year. And until last week it worked but now she’s backed up again and is suffering.

We’re done.  We’re not putting thousands of more dollars into this at this point.  We’ve done more than the average person I feel and frankly don’t have the money.

Weve gone to citypaws and Friendship in the past, and they are only going to offer the route of clearing her out.  Last time we went through this I got the guilt trip for not taking her to the cardiologist for a murmur.

Is there a vet out there that will be understanding of our situation?  I’m willing to try an enema or other inexpensive measures but if that doesn’t work we want to end her suffering.[/quote]
