Thats the thing... Allen seems his normal, laid back self. He's hanging out with us, coming for loving and such. The ONLY way we put two and two together is when the third floor was open to him, we never had any peeing. When the door to the 3rd floor was closed, we had peeing. Now that its permanently closed.... well, I've got daily peeing twice a day. He's ticked off and only telling us by peeing on blankets, clothes & pillows left on the floor, and in laundry baskets. I bet if I let him on the 3rd floor for an hour right now, he won't pee tonight. Unfortunately I can't do that because Minette the grump is up there. I am so ticked at my husband and daughter because I told them this would happen. But their answer: he'll have to "get over it" GRRRR. He's a CAT and he doesn't follow logic. He wants his space and that is that. I keep hoping that soon enough he'll "bond" with his new room on the second floor. So far, he's slept in there on occasion, but has NOT used the litterbox in there.

All this peeing from him, and I KNOW why. I KNOW its not physical. His bladder is not full, his tummy is not tender. It completely behavioral. If you met him right now, you'd swear he was one happy mellow kitty. He IS a happy boy, he just wants HIS room back.

Maybe the girls aren't upset over the room, but are picking up on the activity in the household getting ready for the baby. Cats are notorious for disliking change of any kind. You said you've hit the emotional stage of the pregnancy... did the peeing start right when you hit the emotional part? Maybe they are picking up on your mood swings and reacting. There are so many "maybes" out there for what could be setting them off!

I hope my rambling helped you pinpoint something! I know exactly what you are dealing with!
