I found this on a website. Some of it seems to ring true - so perhaps a some of Winston's issues are age-related. Don't suppose we should be suprised if our moggies mental faculties deteriorate in old age - ours do after all. ![]() Senile Cat Behavior Senile cats often display certain behavior patterns. Meowing for no reason is quite common, and can be nerve wracking (It's 3:00 am, and you've got a cat yowling in the hallway because she thinks she's lost). Wandering and restlessness are also common. Cat aggression may increase as your cat experiences some loss of mental sharpness associated with aging. Look for these behaviors in your elderly cat if you suspect she's senile:
Anyway - glad Winston appears a bit better now. ![]() |

Thanx for that Dinahsmum, Winston displays a quite a few of those. I have to say I try to treat Winston a day at a time because I got into such a stressfull mess when looking into the crf stuff that I ended up paying more attention to the crf than to Winston himself. I like to be knowledgable about my cats and their state of health but it can get all consuming sometimes. OMG I really dont make any sense in my posts do I? ![]() Anyway his urine sample came back today and he is clear for any urine infections too, which is always nice to know. There has been no clawing since he has started his blood pressure tablets. |

Sounds like you have found a solution Elaine. I have to say having dealt with CRF it can become "overwhelming" and hard to concentrate on the cat rather than the condition. As you know we have spoken before, ![]() I also have to say though the older our cats get the harder itis to figure out whats wrong. Cleo displays 5 of those symptoms ![]() ![]() ![]() |
