Hi Staracat1973: Are the litter boxes covered? Many cats don’t like that. My Morley cat (my avatar) was like this for many years – holding it for too long. I would carry him to the bathroom & litter & close the door to our other cats so no ambushes. Finally a few years ago, after a horrible 4 hour session that started at 4 am & a trip to the vets, etc. we started him on professional (ie – from the vets – $$$$) Royal Canin high fiber dry cat food. The dresser became the food station for Morley & production was “big”. Hope that helps (& makes sense!)
Daleandkristen: prayers for you & yours.
