Hello,
We recently adopted an adult cat. He is pretty shy. When we first brought him in he hid behind the entertainment center. I put his cat carrier out and he would go between the carrier and the entertainment center. When I came home from work I noticed he peed in the cat carrier. I figured it was probably too scary to get to the litter box. I cleaned the carrier out. So, I moved him, his carrier, and food into the laundry room with the litter box. Last night I came home and spent time with him in the laundry room. He is a sweet boy and cuddled. He even peeked out to the kitchen and living room. This morning I found he had peed in the carrier again. I cleaned the carrier out and got a hood for the litter box assuming the open litter was just too scary again.
Should I remove the carrier totally forcing him to hide and therefore go in the litter box?
