Try a Feliway diffuser.
It releases a synthetic felins pherimone that calms cats and also, reportedly, will deter unwanted toileting. "jimmy the LD" wrote in message ...

Try several times a day, even if only for keeping your house a little fresher. Just because it's a litter box doesn't change the fact you have urine and feces just sitting there, and by my standards that is not very pleasant or civilized. -mhd I am coming into this rather late and don't know if this has been said yet. Be sure to have the litter box(s) out of the high traffic areas. A secluded area is best...not somewhere anyone can be coming thru at any time. Just my thoughts. Shirley |

Is this new or has your kitty been doing this all along? You need to
rule out any medical problems such as urinary tract infection, etc. Assuming no medical problems. Use and enzyme cleaner (Nature's Miracle or Petastic to name a few) and leave a small bowl of treats for a few days. If it¹s on carpet then really let it soak in to the pad bellow. You can usually rent or borrow a ³black light² to help find any spots you may not know about Try different litters, there is one called Dr Elseys (www.petstop1.com or some of the big ones) which guarantees results. And keep the litter box very clean. If all this fails try ³Feliway² either the spray or the plug in. Expensive but it works. But(t) first things first, rule out any medical problems.

Nice idea, but cats don't think like humans. To them, bodily functions are a
normal part of life, not to be hidden, or ashamed of. To shape a cat, you need to think like a cat... "Shirley Smith" wrote in message ... wrote in message ...
