Default FluffySP

Since coming home I have had a bad problem with FSP. She must have
started urinating on the floor while I was away and my continual
attempts to clean it up has resulted in a huge big stain right in the
doorway. Yesterday I got in the carpet shampoo people (at great cost)
and they did the house and managed to get rid of the stain. I watched
Fluff like a hawk but you guessed it, I turned my back for a second and
she rushed back and urinated on the patch where the stain had been.
It's enough to make you cry. I have been to the vet and got pet Odorex,
sprinkled pepper etc. tried a heap of solutions.

The carpet cleaning man said the way to handle urine was to soak it up
slowly with a clean towel and to leave the cloth on the patch to keep
soaking it up until it stops being damp. This stops it soaking into the
carpet. You then put a damp clean cloth on it and keep changing that.

A neighbour called in while I was meditating on all this and said "oh,
there is only one solution, you will have to 'put her down!" You could
have heard me shriek a mile away. I don't know how anyone could even
suggest that as a solution!!!! I just adore the little monster. I guess
the only thing I can do at the moment is leave her outside as much as
possible and watch her every minute she is indoors. Sigh.

Could you try keeping an extra litter box really close to where she has
chosen to go? At least for a while?

Jo, She refuses to use a litter box. There is one just near the
carpet. I have tossed her into litter boxes and she often uses them
then but won't get in one herself.

Can you temporarily put a catlitter box in that spot for a while? Or do you
even do litterboxes?(I can't remember). I would put one there for some time,
and maybe add a box elsewhere. Maybe she is objecting to going where B & C
do.
