My neutered male Dude always avoids his litter box for days after I clean it out, and naturally he's pooping and peeing elsewhere.
I haven't changed the kind of litter, and I bought a second identical litter box so that I can swap them out to clean them, since he seems to react to anything that smells wrong or different -- that way he doesn't smell the cleaning product (which is a scentless biodegradable soap) after two weeks.
I have no idea where he's peeing in the house, but somewhere my floor is rotting.
He's always done this, which makes me reluctant to fully clean his litter box and I end up scooping for far longer than I should just to avoid the problem, but I will be putting my house on the market soon and I can't have the place stinking.
He had blood work done ten days ago and he's fine. His teeth are fine. He gets along well with my Willow, so that's not it.
I'm at my wit's end with this. Any suggestions?
