Am learning so much with having these older cats..... for the first time I am learning all about pet diapers.....If you have never diapered a cat by yourself, you haven't lived...LOLOL! Anyway, Tuxie is pee incontinent during the night and lining her bed with a puppy pee pad helped her but found the diapers wicked the pee away from her fur more than the bed liner, so here she is sporting her new look.....she is mostly continent during the day, so I just put these on at night.....

Laura, My parents' cats lived 17 and 18 happy years (spoiled) and no problems.

Thats good, i'm just asking in case, cause this is the first time i heard about it from Cats, so i thought maybe things have changed, i had Cats before and they were 19 and 20 yrs. old and never had a problem.So hopefully i wont need any diapers, cause i dont think we have any over here:

Hi Gabi....Tuxie will be 24 yrs old the end of this month....her sister Satie does not have this issue however, her other sister, Graycie was incontinent starting about 5 months before she passed last year and she was 22 when she passed.....I ordered these diapers on line...they are doggie diapers but they fit her her fine...

Thank you Vicky, i remember Graycie passing last year. Compared to Tuxie, my Girls are still young adults.

Yep they sure are, Gabi...….this is the first time we have had such old cats, so it has taken some creativity to take care of them...

This made me giggle. My cat I had for 18 years would have scratched my eyes out if I ever tried putting a diaper on her. Fortunately there never was a need for it. Even if I would have gotten them on her she would have had them off in no time I am sure. I have to say those are fancy diapers.

The first one I put on her came off...I walked into the laundry room where 2 of the litter boxes are and it was laying on the floor....so I think I now have them figured out...
by crafter2243 04 May 2019
Maybe she took them off to use the litter box😊😉😊

LOLOL...I am sure she did and she didn't know how to pull them back up...LOL

Tuxie is just as cute wearing a diaper. Give her a cuddle for me. I've heard of diapers for dogs but this is a new idea for me. I hope you survive the nightly diaper experience.

Oh! Vicki, this is a great way of stopping cats from peeing on their bedding. She does look indignant though! Hope it helps out really well, love Chris

I see Vickie, she didn't object to posing for you with the diaper, mot too sure if one can get these in South Africa, but it is a great idea when one needs them for an older animal. Thanks for sharing. Hugs Maureen

Tuxie is still so adorable even with a diaper. Guess we will all be there some day. hehe..At least Tuxie wears it with style and still loves his mama...

First time I ever saw a cat with a diaper. I never knew they even existed. Glad you found a solution.

I am surprised she allows it. Lol! I am not sure if my senior would. Thankfully he is still going outside.
