How To: stop male declawed cat from urinating on the furniture?

Once you rule out a medical problem contributing to the inappropriate urination, then you may be able to try some other tactics to help him adjust and hopefully stop the bad behavior. But a vet trip would be the best place to start. Please keep us posted.

I highly recommend Feliway spray. I just started using it and believe me, Buddy is alot calmer in a matter of one day.

I would definitely have him checked out for a UTI. Oh, and a declawed cat doesn't necessarily urinate outside the box because it's declawed. But it CAN happen. Don't dismiss it. They can also have behavioral problems, arthritis in their declawed paws, biting is another issue that has to do with declawing.

I agree that a trip to the vet is in order. He needs to be tested for FIP, FELV and UTI. If he has been declawed, it would seem that he would have been neutered at the same time. If not, it would be a good idea to schedule it ASAP.

If he doesn't have a urinary tract infection, he might not like the litter you are using. Declawed cats can sometimes be picky about the feel of the litter. I hope you have at least 3 litter boxes for two cats.

Keep us informed on your progress.
