Hi there I discovered this site as I was searching the internet. I hope there exists a solution for my cat problem.
My cat has been with me for about a year, shes 7 years old. We get on very well except the fact she keeps peeing on my bed. Always while I'm in it. Sometimes looking me right in the eye while she did it, other times I would wake up to it. IT DRIVES ME NUTS.
The first time it happened was during an ear infection when she was unhappy about the cone. Then there was once when the fire alarm went off in the building I guess she was scared. All the other times were completely random as far as I can tell.
I tried everything. Clean bill of health from the vet. Feliway doesn't help (I thought it did for a couple of months then boom, got peed on again). Cleaning the litter box after every use doesn't help. I tried cleaning the comforters myself with enzyme cleaner, then threw a bunch away because I was paranoid I didn't do it right and the smell was what drew her back. I started buying cheap $30 comforter from amazon....placing a new order almost every month
The thing is she knows she's not supposed to do it. I gave her a lecture a few times when I happened to be awake and caught her in the act. Now she runs to hide in a corner right after she pees, and peeks at me until I realize it's happened again and begin cleaning up. She knows she did bad and human not happy but, still gonna pee on you! She knows shes cute and can get away with anything...
This past month was especially bad, there was an incident almost every week. I am starting to get really frustrated. I'd hate to have to lock her out of the bedroom. She's a scaredy cat and she has claimed quite a few safe spaces in it.
