I have an 11 year old rescued cat. I got him 7 months ago. He recently (like 3 weeks ago) started peeing on the towel I put in front of the box. I am not sure what has changed in the house to prevent this from happening. Any suggestions?

Hi @TVet and welcome to TCS!

The first thing to do is to take your boy to the vet.  UTIs are a common cause of this and it may be the issue.

It's really important to clean up well afterwards with an enzyme cleaner to stop reoccurences.

We have a great article on all things litterboxy here:
