I would just like to mention here that Buspar is the drug of choice for treating litterbox problems that are caused by anxiety. And I understand the success rate is very high. Since your cat is not responding, that would make me even further suspect that whatever meds she is taking for a diuretic are probably more at fault than simple anxiety. An animal behaviorist might be able to help. Also try putting around more litterboxes. Perhaps the urge to urinate comes on suddenly and strongly and perhaps additional boxes might help.

I strongly suspect that for some reason there is some discomfort associated with urination that is caused by the drug.

Anyhow, good luck!
