Well, yes it's easy she smells her old pee and pees the same spot.

Wrong ! Even with a new sofa pillows - she still pees on that sofa.

It's been 2 Months now, I need some help soon.

I love my cat but she will end up in the local shelter soon, If I can't fix this problem.

Help ! Help ! Thank you.

  1. This is very likely a medical condition. This is exactly what most cats do when they have a problem. It's the only way they have to tell you something is wrong. Now it's your turn to act on the information she is providing you and resolve the problem, whatever that may be.

    Factors Contributing to Inappropriate Elimination

    •  Medical Conditions: Cats avoiding the litter pan should be examined by a veterinarian to rule out a medical condition. Laboratory tests will need to be performed in most cases, however, if a condition does exist, immediate treatment will help resolve the behavioral problem. Possible medical conditions include: colitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), diabetes mellitus, hyperthyroidism, kidney or liver disease, or feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD). Medical conditions such as arthritis, FLUTD, anal sac disease, and some forms of colitis, which cause pain urinating or defecating may also result in inappropriate elimination

    •  Stress: Cats of all ages experience stress at some point in their lives (just like us). Stress can be a major cause of inappropriate elimination, and known stressors such as moving, changes in routine, or changes within the family structure (new members added or family members leaving home) can result in inappropriate elimination. Reducing these stressors or decreasing their impact on the household will benefit your cat and you, too.

    •  Box Location & Contents: Some cats may not like where their box is located; too close to their food or water, in a high traffic area, or on a different level of the house than where they spend most of their time. Some cats are very particular and will not defecate in the same box in which they urinate or go into a box which has been used by another cat. Most cats do not like a dirty litter box. Clean out waste from their litter boxes at least once daily, and wash the litter boxes weekly so that they don't decide to eliminate elsewhere in your home.


  2. Take a clean tray which has high walls and fill the tray with sand or soil.Put it where the cat peed the las time.Cats lik to hide their litter,so the cat will try to litter in the tray.Cats automatically become used to litter trays.If the cat pees again at the sofa,take the tray and put it near the cat.I will learn that you want it to pee in the tray.
