My boyfriend & I have 3 cats, 2 are about 1-year old & are brothers (neutered). The other cat is about 14 years old (spayed). Introduced to the same apt in May. No problems with spraying or other litter box issues. Have 2 litter boxes.
About a month ago, we started noticing that one or more of the cats were urinating outside of their litter boxes. Always in the same spot about a foot away from the closest litter box on tiled floor (in front of plastic shelving). The litter boxes were un-covered litter boxes, so we thought we'd try switching to covered litter boxes. Didn't work. Tried switching the arrangement of the room, with the litter boxes where the shelves were & vice versa, but the "puddle" still appeared in the same spot on the floor (this time right in front of one of the litter boxes, since everything was switched around). I "caught" one of the cats (one of the young cats) in the act of urinating on the spot, but we're not sure if he's the only one doing it. Have tried cleaning the spot with many different cleaning products (including Lysol floor cleaner, & a mix of white vinegar & water).
How do we get this to stop??
