Dose up on anti-histamines and see if that's enough to suppress the allergy.
Should have mentioned... I took a couple of Cetirizine based anti allergen tablets and whilst their recommended dosage was 1 per 24 hours, i was finding that they only helped my eyes for around 5-6 hours at best.

We had a Celia Hammond lady come to vet us for an adoptee cat.
Ironically, for a cat person, she was barking.
She is a pretty strange lady.

My cat keeps on wee-ing over the top of the litter tray!
She's only recently started to do this, and sometimes she does aim straight into the heart of it. I've taken to pushing her bottom down when I catch her doing it, but obviously we're not always around to watch the cat pee.
Has anyone got any ideas on this one? Has anyone had this issue before?

Try a bigger tray? Or a covered litter box? We have a massive one for our two cats, but in the past, when the tray has been smaller, this has happened (one cat not wanting to get too much into the litter, so her ass sticks over the edge of the tray).
(btw, the sick one is still kicking. Although she doesn't walk around or hang out at all any more. Just sleeps under the bed in her comfortable hole with her food and water and a short few steps to the litter. She seems comfortable for now.).

Sometimes Molly's aim isn't too good either.. I tend tot think this is her way of telling me she wants the litter changed..
BTW. After 3 weeks Molly is now out of the lampshade collar and well happy for it. She's as right as rain (as she was before the op actually) so now it's just a case of if and when the cancer reappears.. Could be months. Could be years... But in the big picture we never know how much time any animal has (human or feline)

Actually, this should be in Post your Pets
Lets keep this thread for what to do when your cat falls out of a window.

fook.. I searched "cats" and this came up hence the bump 3 weeks ago when Molly went in. Didn't look under pets..

My answer is when you cat falls out the window, you cry. I would.

I quite like this thread - it's not a 'here's my pet', it's a 'what do I do if ...' pet thread.
It has a place methinks.

Besides, I still haven't got Jambi eating crunchy kibble stuff. I have tried everything, all the fancy stuff, wrapping it in cheese ... He has to start eating it as he's already had two teeth out and he's only 2.
What do I do???!!!

I bought the biggest covered litter tray I could find (good job too considering how huge Monty grew!), then got my saw out and chopped off the door and the lid, leaving just very tall sides and back. That way I can empty it as soon as I see there's something to empty, and it's difficult or impossible for Monty to piss over the side.

What foods have you tried? Mine have Go Cat Indoor and Hills Science Plan food. The Hills stuff is excellent.

They found that cats use their tongues to delicately draw up water without breaking the surface of the liquid.
Or Monty's method. Dump paw in water. Lick water off paw. Shake wet paw until it is dry and the surrounding area is wet. Repeat.
