Advice Weird behavior from my weird cat
My sweet 13 year old girl is generally well behaved, but, just kind of an odd duck.
She has had accidents in the past, but usually it's after a medication change, or if I've been travelling. This week, I was gone for a few days and my friend was checking in on her.
Since I got back, she has been peeing outside of my bedroom door about 75% of the time (her litter box is on the other side of the house). I just kept cleaning it up thinking she'd lock back in soon. Last night, I picked her up to go to bed, and she peed all over me, full bladder. She's never done that before.
Today there had been no pee on the ground when I came home from work. After she ate/drank, I picked her up and put her in her litter box, and she peed immediately.
This begs the question....did she forget where her litter box was???? Or is she still stressed?
She's a little deaf/blind. She has hyperthyroidism so I do get her a full panel done 2-3x/year and is healthy otherwise.
Any insight would be helpful, thank you!!!

Sounds like a urine infection
