lost !!!

alberto1 Sep 04, 2007 11:06 PM

My cat is 17 and all of a sudden he's finding strange places to lay. Now he stays in his litter box !!! Even sleeps there!!
He'll stay on my lap when I'm working on the computer. If I get up he goes back to the litter box.

I'm lost on his behavior !!!!

Hi Alberto,

When a cat's behavior changes like yours has, it's definitely time for a vet visit. Senior cats are prone to many different things and sleeping in different places is a red flag that something is wrong. Your cat isn't lost, he is trying to tell you that he isn't feeling well.

Please make an appointment and take your kitty in ASAP. Your vet will probably want to do a blood panel, urinalysis, and possibly x-rays.

Please keep us updated on what happens.

Regards,
PHKitkat
