I know this is a common complaint around here, so I'm hoping someone can help me out. I included bullet points to make it easier.
-I have four strictly indoor cats with four litterboxes that I clean daily.
-Squash was recently treated for crystals and seems to have recovered. I've watched him pee and he has a good stream.
-Squash has been peeing outside of the litterbox ever since his crystal episode. Took him to the vet for a re-check and they said his urine was the right pH. At the time there were still some crystals left in his urine but not that much. His stream has improved since then and I don't see him straining to urinate.
-Squash mostly hangs out in my upstairs hallway\closet where he has his own litterbox. He uses it consistently to poop, and will occasionally pee in it, but about once a day he will pee in random places on the floor. I've done my best to clean the spots he has peed in with vinegar solution and block them off so he doesn't go there, but he just finds a new spot to pee in.
I feel like this started off as a symptom of his crystals and turned into a behavioral issue. I've moved his litterbox to a different spot and put cat attractant in it, but he will still pee on the floor. As I mentioned, he will pee in the litterbox sometimes but not consistently. Does anyone have any ideas of what I could do to get him back in the litterbox 100%? Feeling really frustrated having to clean pee up every day.
