Free litterbox/pet cave

[beinneighe.livejournal.com]

Just got a new cat but, perhaps as part of an elaborate scheme to get me to spend lots of money, it turns out she's allergic to most litter and needs a particular litterbox/litter combo. As a result, I have a brand-new hooded corner litterbox, as seen here, for anyone who wants it. If you threw a pillow in instead, it would also make a nice cat/small dog cave.

It cost me $40 <2 wks ago, so if you'd like to throw in a few bucks for it, I wouldn't say no. Regardless, if it doesn't get claimed by Monday night, it'll be out on the curb, so payment is accepted but not required.

I had a cat that tore his fur out every spring/summer, and it was helped by changes in his diet. I had to stop giving him tuna, which he didn't like. He got steroids for years, and I am pretty sure that is what gave him cancer later in life, so if you can get your cat off the steroids sooner rather than later, I recommend it.

Thanks--that's definitely the plan. Did you ever hear anything about which foods tend to lead to skin allergies? Mine's transitioning from chicken/salmon to chicken/egg... Since she's only lived here for a couple of weeks and stress could be a factor, it'll take a while to isolate out how she responds to each food.

The rescue I got her from was a big help--they did a skin biopsy to rule out fungal or bacterial issues and did a food elimination diet that included feeding her venison and ostrich! Very impressive. Hoping now that she's in a clean, quiet environment we can figure something out that they missed.
