Ok. I've done everything I could do, and more. I've taken her to the vet. I've sprayed the sofas with deterrent. I've done my best to keep her in my sight every possible moment. I've kept her litter boxes immaculately clean. Every night before I go to bed I spray the sofas just in case Katie gets out, then I bring her to bed with me.

Every day for the past 3 days she's found a way to pee on the couch. This morning she raced out my bedroom door ahead of me and peed on the couch before I could catch her. I have a perfectly clean litter box in my bedroom. It's as if she's trained herself to use the sofas.

I've gone above and beyond the call of duty with this cat. I will not live in filth, and I don't want to hear a bunch of mean, judgemental BS from anybody about it.

Katie just became an outdoor cat. I know it's cold, but there's a place under our house where it's always very warm. It stays around 40-50 degrees under there. It's either this or bring her to the shelter. It is a kill shelter.

There's no way I could find another home for her. Nobody wants a cat who can't use the litter box.

At least she's spayed and won't be having kittens outside in the cold.
