Ever since we adopted our cat, she always has peed on the edge of the litterbox. This was ongoing for 6 years. On a whim, I bought finer litter and she stopped this behaviour immediately. Just thought I’d share.

Exact same situation here. My old vet was useless. New one recognized it as soon as she saw her walk.

Had a similar experience with our dog. His toe swelled like crazy and we didn't want to take him to my vet because we have more pets than the city allows, and my wife's vet went off into MAGA land.

So we took him to several other vets, spending about $1500 with no answers except a shrug and "try giving him benadry" l, before we finally took him to my vet.

Took all of 60 seconds for him to say, "oh, he tore a tendon and has arthritis." Gave him an arthritis shot and he was fine in a few days.
