Hello everybody !
I have a small problem with my 5 year-old cat Fatima, who is sterilized.
In brief: I got a new kitten starting January 1, 2019. It took around 3 months for Fatima to stop hissing and to become friends with the small boy cat. Now they do everything together. Now the kitten is 12 months old, but not yet sterilized (as I've had no problems with him until now I've tried to postpone it).
Now suddenly, starting couple of weeks ago, Fatima no longer uses the box to make her poo. Instead, she makes it on the carpet, or next to the box just few inches away !
Right now I was just cleaning her poo from the bathroom to the corridor and all the way to the living room. She was leaving poo 'on the road'.
Is this a demonstration?
Or does she not support the odour of the non-sterilized cat - or what might be the issue...?
I'm very surprised because during the 5 years that I have been with Fatima, she only made this few times (usually when I came back from summer holidays), so I am quite surprised about what is happening.
Generally speaking she is a very sensitive and shy cat.
Thank you for everyone for any suggestions you might have !
