cat peeing in wrong place..
Oh my god.. I am so heated right now. In the past few days, I have thought that I smelled cat pee on some of our clothes that we toss onto the floor in the laundry room. Well today I caught my cat (male, approx. 13 years old, in good health, utd with vet checkups and shots, longterm neutered) PEEING on one of my favorite clothing items on the floor by the washer. He was just finising this when I caught him. He was not spraying, he was squatting.
For one, this is about 5 feet from his litter box that is CLEAN! Two, he saw me watching and did not even stop. I immediately grabbed him by the scruff and scooped him up and yelled LOUDly.. he went running.
GRRR... any advice? Here's the new development that might be contributing to this? An intact male stray is hanging around our house, spraying outside sometimes.. can't get anywhere near the thing.. I am thinking that a live-trap and visit to the shelter might be on order for that. I can't live like this. I can NOT let my house be one of those houses steeped in cat urine.. I love my cat; he is my shadow around the house and sleeps curled up with me. This is heart wrenching. I won't get rid of him, but if this keeps up he will have to be confined to a very small area.

OMG I am aghast! There are.. shudder.. maggots in the litter box. I did not notice this before today!! OMG again.. I am just flipping out here. So maybe this is why he is not using the box? I am going to completely change out the box now.. man this is the nastiest thing on earth.. I use clumping litter and I sift it out daily.. seriously.

That could exactly why. Our cat all of a sudden did that to, after a month of things not worried we figured itout, shewasallergic to thcat litter, we had recently changed it. So def change the litter!!

Re: cat peeing in wrong place..
it is gross! I am not a scumbucket who never cleans the cat box. I read up on this, and it says that flies can lay their eggs in fresh cat..poop.. and it goes from there. I did notice some larger flies in the house over the weekend.. so I am going now to clean this mess up.. I have to psyche myself up for it because this sort of thing revolts me.!
