Litter Box frustrations here - BULLY Cats

[Catty1]

I wonder about Mandy having her "own" room...

I know, I know...a litterbox in the bedroom is not to everyone's liking. Perhaps a small hooded one with a charcoal filter, inside and at the end of a bedroom closet, with deodorizing litter, would help for a while.

That's all I can think of at the moment...unless a spray water bottle on Tommy and Crystal works for them to stop the bullying.

hugs to all your furbabies.

Sandie, I'm sorry to hear this. My Storm who is the alpha cat will still bully Sky and Ziggy for no reason at all. I would also agree that if you have a spare bedroom, then try setting up a litter box and a food and water dish in there for Mandy. The only other thing would be to give Tommy and Crystal some kind of calming meds or herbs so that they won't be such bullies. I'm sure you've aleady tried Feliway plugins and spray. I used to use them and my cats became desensitized over time so they didn't work any more. Now I just try to give Storm a time out or break up the fight/squabble the best I can. Good luck.

Glad to hear others have similar situations! What's that saying? "Joy shared is joy doubled; Trouble shared is trouble halved." LOL

The whole idea of putting one box upstairs in the feed room was for Mandy to use that. Didn't work; of course, the other 9 make full use of it.

I'll just keep trying different permutations, ha haa.

Poor Mandy.. Yup have had the same problems at my house.. You may have to give Mandy her own room.. Block off the doorway with baby half doors stacked.. That way she can still see everyone & they can see her but cant get to her.. Good Luck

That is what I had to resort to, and kept Georgie (when she was alive) in there with Minnie. To this day, I still have on in there...for Minnie (and anyone else that wants to use it). I had to accept the fact that a litterbox in my room was better than poop and pee everywhere else.
