6 yo indoor cat urinating outside of litter trays - pls help
Posted: Sun Nov 13, 2022 7:33 pm
I know this may be an impossible question but we are at the end of our tethers with our gorgeous 6 year old indoor British Shorthair named Pippa.
Just over a year ago she suffered with bladder stones that resulted in her urinating outside of her litter trays.
The stones have cleared up but occasionally (increasingly as of late) she has started urinating in different spots around the house but without the other effects of the stones (blood in the urine and lethargy etc). The hallway, kitchen, and on a brand new rug in the living room. I clean the spots thoroughly and I've tried different pet friendly products designed to discourage similar behaviour.
We have 5 open litter trays that are emptied regularly throughout the day. These are away from their food and water.
We have another cat who we've had for 5 years who Pippa doesn't get on with all that well but never had any toilet issues prior to the bidder stones problem last year.
It's becoming more and more of an issue to the point where we're discussing (reluctantly) rehoming her so I thought I'd ask if anyone has any tips (out of desperation)?
