    All I can think of is retraining. Restrict her to a small area - start with a crate if you have one, a bathroom if you don't. A small area and a litter box, food bowl and water dish.

    After 3 or 4 days of this, allow her a larger area, but still not the full house. See if she maintains using the box.

    Oh, and take a urine sample in for testing (most vets allow just the sample if they have seen the cat recently) for a urinary tract infection.

    Good luck!

    When I have brought new cats home - two rescues, one from the Humane Society - I do keep them in one room to begin with, for at least a week.

    While she is in there, get some Cat Attract litter to encourage her to use the box. She may still have some feral habits.

    The first thing I think of when this happens is a urinary infection. If you can't get a urine sample, take her to a vet. Hopefully the shelter has a vet that is low or not cost.

    Please keep us updated on sweet Lola. Bless you for adopting her!
