He is 19 years old. He used to be my ex-husband Pat's cat. Pat named him after a city in Thailand called U-Tapao.

It was only in the last few years that I looked it up and learned how I should be spelling it. Now I'm just used to my spelling.

Poor kitty! I think I would avoid peeing if I had crystals, I would avoid peeing, too! That's good the vet found the problem and you can correct it with diet.
You are SUCH a good kitty mum. That's nice that Oo-tapo likes going in his cage. maybe he feels safe there.

Yes, poor old Oo-tapo. He's been doing this going outside the litter box thing for quite a while - I thought he was just getting senile and accepted it but it was getting to be too much when he started to do it upstairs. Anyway, I'm glad to hear it might be a medical issue and can be fixed.
That saying really helps me figure out what I am doing in my mind. When I focus on the problem the problem gets huge and overpowering but when I focus on the solution things always get better.

Hopefully, once he gets the crystals resolved he'll feel better and maybe resume normal.
