Hi Everyone,
I am hoping someone might have some advice on an issue I am having with our cat 'Fluff'.
Fluff has been visiting us over the last 6 months and was skin and bone. Back to full health we now know that he is about 3-4 years old, un-neutered and living as a stray. He has a lovely soft temperament and gets on very well with the resident 6 six year old neutered male cat that also visits us. Fluff now stays in for a little sleep every evening now that the weather is getting colder and everything is going in the right direction.
Every evening, my partner and I regularly go outside to our garden for a cigarette. Fluff gets up and comes out with us and waits to come back inside for food, fuss and a sleep.
Unfortunately, he doesn't 'pop-off' for a wee while we are outside. Instead, he goes to the toilet by our front door..
He has had a health check which showed him to be healthy and is due his 'snip' on 1 November.
We have put litter trays down with Catsan in them, but he happily prefers to wee on the newspaper surrounding them. We are now trying soil in the litter trays so will see how it goes..
I would really appreciate any tips or pointers you could offer as ideally we would prefer him to give us a signal that he wants to go outside..
Many thanks in advance!
