Thread: Fur smelling of Urine

I can't imagine it's typical... our Coonies certainly never leave the tray wet and smelly after peeing.
I notice you have started threads about his litter behaviour before - have you mentioned this problem to your vet? Perhaps Chester has some kind of medical problem. I think this is something that should be checked out first.

I have never had problems with wee, but poop is another story Thankfully given their size and power they give in and let you attack the area with a handfull of baby wipes. now thay are bigger its a two person job! I always seem to get the wipeing part though it does amuse me how when you start to wipe they put their back legs out straight as if to say it's easier to submit to this as it's going to happen

No, I never get this problem, although I've got two girls so I don't know if that would make a difference. Like Helen and NCarver, the only time I ever get a litter problem is with the brown stuff.

This really made me smile, Helen - both mine do this too, although since we switched back to Whiskas it's a mercifully rare occurance these days - but they do both do it. I get whining at the soggy cloth shoved round their bums, but then they extend their legs and it gives you easier access! Most odd, but that's Coonies for you
