female cat urination

Question
hi, maybe this has happened to you... but my aunt has a female cat, about 2-3 years old. she is the only cat and for the past 2 months she has been urinating on everything... clothes, furniture, bags, she will even go out of her way and climb things just to pee.. she still uses the litter box though... we gave her urinary infection foods but that didnt work, do you know if she can get any medicine or anything from either the pet store or a vet to stop her from doing this?

Answer
Hi Mandy!  This does sound like the classic symptoms of a urinary tract infection.  The only way to cure a urinary tract infection would be by obtaining an antibiotic (usually Clavamox)from your veterinarian for a course of 7-14 days.  This should clear her right up!
Hope she feels better soon!
