Urgent advice needed re weeing cat !!!!!!!!!!!

This morning about 10.30 am my cat did a huge wee on my bed.


 


I stripped the bed and washed everything and the cat was looking really upset so I just played with him and he finally settled.


 


This evening about 7 pm I made the bed with all fresh linen (because I haven't been able to dry any of the other stuff due to continual heavy rain).


 


About 9.30 pm I was in the lounge room and the cat was meowing and I thought he was on the windowsill in the bedroom because that window was open but he kept up the meowing so I went in to see what was wrong and my bed was drenched again.


 


I have stripped the bed again but this time the mattress is soaked so I have moved the litter box into the kitchen and closed off everything to the cat except the kitchen and lounge room.


 


I re-homed this cat at the beginning of December and apart from problems with him spending the first 2 weeks under the lounge and only coming out after I went to be to eat and use his litter box.


 


There have been no wee problems at all until today.


 


I don't know what is wrong and what to do about it.


 


BTW I have been looking at buying a new bed ensemble but don't want to get one if the cat is going to wee all over it. I nearly bought one last week but due to an unexpected visit to vet for the dog and a huge vet bill I didn't get the new bed.


 


I am wondering if the bed is always going to have a smell that will attract the cat to wee on it and if so what can I do?


 


The cat does sleep on the bed with me but will jump up to the window sill if he hears anything outside during the night.

The cat is about or over 2 years old?


It want's to go outside, and knows you're the one to make that happen. But you're not.


In other words, the cat's cracked it.

There may be another cat prowling around which is causing him to mark his territory, or he may be unwell.


Jumping up at the window I would say another tom cat around.

You could be right about that too lionrose.7. But some cats around 2 years old, just have to go out. I've had some that you can't keep in because they go completely stir crazy, and some that don't care. As you can't tell from kittens (all brought up the same) not going to have another. ๐Ÿ˜ž

Nev my last cat was like that, she loved being outside in the sun, I keep her in at night.


 


I have a kitten now, I keep her inside but she does look out the window longingly

My cat seems to prefer to be inside because he hides whenever something happens outside and he likes the lounge chair at the large patio door because he is in the sun , and is very comfortable if he wants to have a sleep.


 


He never goes near any doors leading to the outside, if I go outside he just watches from afar and makes no attempt to come out with me.

My cat goes nuts when she wants out. She zooms around the house, jumping on things she's knows she's not supposed to, miaowing and carrying on. She's particularly fond of going out at daybreak and will keep jumping on to my bed with all the grace and force of an elephant then zooming off again. Dratted animal.


 


 


Just recently she peed on the spare bed, then another day on her own bed, then on the lounge and stared at me while she was doing it. Then she peed on the bed again.


 


I had had a visitor staying for a few days the first time she peed on the peed, and I think the second time she peed on the bed was after a visitor had stayed again.


 


I've just had visitors stay on and off over the last two weeks and so far there has been no peeing, so I'm not sure whether it was a particular vistor she was showing displeasure with, or she was just being a horror, or there was an underlying medical problem that resolved itself.


 


Oh, I did get another litter tray and put it at the other end of the house, so she has two to choose from and I have changed to the crystals rather than the clumping clay litter.

So what's changed within the last week? Maybe your cat doesn't like something that's changed. Routine? Furniture? Visitors?
