Thank you to everyone for all your feedback. Well, great news! Felix is no longer scratching at the door!

I've added a new litterbox - different to our current one - he is still using the litter boxes (both of them, but is still occassionally using the carpet too). I have eucaplyptis (sp?) oil -...
I have exactly the same problem with my cat Felix. He has been peeing on my hall carpet - in various corners. I took him to the vet to rule out a UTI - which we have. The vet thinks it may just be a 'habit'.
I have used citrus sprays, cleaned the area, etc - it makes no difference. I have even...
