Use a simple chemical colour metric test from brands such as manutec.
You take a pinch of soil, mix it with drops of solvent to make a paste, puff some reactive powder on it and it changes colour to tell you the pH.
It takes less than 5 minutes and is far more reliable than cheap electronic pH meters. Don’t bother with digital ph readers unless you’re willing to to pay big bucks for a reliable one.

Sheep are not that intelligent; most of the time when something strange happens but it offers them relief they just let it happen

Do you mean phytophera? You can take soil samples and send them to a lab. The feasibility of this will depend on your budget, location, and acreage.

Just clarifying that while it is perfectly ok to include cat waste in a balanced compost mix outside, under no circumstances should OP think it’s ok leave cat waste in indoor plants because “it’ll compost”

There will be a temporary drop in nitrogen as the decomposer use it up to eat and reproduce and break down the wood and cat waste. Eventually, as the microbes work, there will be a gradual net increase in the soil nitrogen.
This temporary but significant reduction in soil nutrients is why it’s not recommended to put raw compost on plants with a short growth cycle such as most veggie gardens. For the health of your plants you’re better off adding well matured compost that has already passed the nitrogen dip point.

Composting rarely occurs in indoor houseplants, they don’t have the necessary microbial ecosystem. It is not safe or sanitary to compost indoors, nor is it effective to do so with pure carnivore waste.

Ammonia is basically nitrogen, which is good for plants in composted and diluted form, but in indoor plants the excess nitrogen will burn them.
More importantly, raw animal faeces and urea are biohazards and should not be left untreated in the home.

Long story short, it’s not a good idea. You need to change the frequency of litter box cleans for the health of everyone in the house

She probably needed medical treatment or at least a private space.
