I am in desperate need of some help here. I have two fixed cats, one male and one female. Our female has taken to peeing on the vents, and this is a huge problem that we're not succeeding at fixing.
BACKSTORY:
WHAT WE'VE TRIED:
BACKSTORY:
- We recently went on vacation for 12 days and had a friend that the cats know stay here on and off while we were gone
- Female cat has peed on bath mats / in bath tub in the past when we leave for extended periods of time
- We thought having someone stay here as opposed to just checking on them every other day would make them feel better and stop peeing outside of the litterbox
- She's also peed outside of the litterbox when we put things like litter-catching mats outside of the litter box
- We currently have 2 litterboxes for the cats to use, which was fine for a few weeks
WHAT WE'VE TRIED:
- After thoroughly cleaning each time, we've tried putting things over the vents to block her, but she just pees around them
- We put citrus-scent down on the floor, and she pees regardless
- We moved their two food bowls to over these two vents so she won't pee where she eats, but she's continued to do so with them there
- I've sat downstairs for hours at a time monitoring her while she's down with the air vents, but I haven't caught her yet - I just always find it later
