I had a problem with my cats. Then I found the answer. You may not believe this.

It was the Arm and Hammer cat box deodorizer. You know, the stuff you sprinkle into the cat litter? It's made with baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate. It has a high pH, and when the cats use the litter box, then lick their paws (I know, ewwww!) they ingest enough to spike their urine to a higher pH. I stopped using it and the problem completely went away!

I can't believe they can sell that stuff! Do you use it, or cat litter with Arm & Hammer in it? Some people even sprinkle Baking Soda in the litter box (as directed on the A&H box!).

Good luck with the kitties. I hate it when the pets don't feel well......

OK, This is the next thing I'm going to investigate. I'm wondering how inclusive the cat litter packaging is.
