I wish someone could help me figure out what is causing the aweful strong urine odor my female cat is produsing. She is about 7 or 8 years old. She's been fixed. Could she have a UTI. She has had bad smelling urine for along time though. She does not act sick. Someone please give me an answer.

My first reaction is that she had an incontinence problem...she may be leaking small amounts of urine all the time, thus a chronic odor!!Not a good thing for an owner to have to deal with but the poor kitty has no control! Has she ever borne kittens causing a cystocele? Good luck!

My opinion is either a UTI or urine crystals. Is the odor just in the
litter box or is it some where else?. It is also possible that she
has renal poly cystitis.

At 1 time or another with a multi cat household, I have dealt with all
of these. Good Luck

I have know idea what poly cyctitis is, but I can say she will also go on the pile of clothes in my laundry room sometimes but I think that is when her liter box needs scooped more than likely. But when I scoop thru her box the urine odor is almost like pure ammonia. It almost knocks me down. I only have one other cat and I believe she had this problem before i got him. I don't know, maybe I need to ask her vet. Thank you for the ideas.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
