Help with Cat

[jenluckenbach]

Do you have more than one box? (some cats won't pee and poop in the same box.)

I would pick the poop from where he did it and place it in the litter tray for him to snif and see if he gets the idea where it goes!

I know where you are coming from I adopted a cat and sometimes he'll poop in the box but most of the time he doesn't and he stays in "his room" (the downstairs bathroom) when no one is home and at bedtime. It's much easier to clean up on tile then to have to search the whole house for it. Sometimes he even poops right next to his food!

I've used cat attract litter and it seems to work but really it's just hit or miss! I would just try different litters or maybe a larger box. I've even been using the flower essences "love my litter box". He'll use the box for a week and then goes right back to the floor. He's been diagnosed with IBD so my vet thinks he might associate the box with pain when he poops.

Whatever you do...don't give up. Hey I would much rather have him poop outside the box than pee!!
