I have a 1.5 year old neutered male cat who urinates in the litter box but poops only on the floor around the litter box. The cat often has some red blood in his feces. I have taken him to the vet twice for this. He's been treated for it with antibiotics and de-wormer, but neither helped. Our vet said she wasn't concerned about it and didn't think it was a problem. I told her about his bathroom behavior and again she was not concerned.
Has anyone else had a similar experience with their cat? I would really like him to use the litter box, but I'm more concerned with his health. He seems healthy otherwise.
Other pertinent information: I have three litter boxes, one for each cat in the house. I clean them daily. I have tried moving the boxes to different locations to see if that would help this cat and it didn't work...he still pooped where he always does on the floor. I have also tried different litters to see if that would help and it didn't.
Thank you for any advice/help you can offer.
