Litter Box Peeing

[AvaJoy]

I am all too familiar with this quirk, as my Debra (blk/wht) pees down the sides of the covered litter boxes frequently . . . sometimes she positions herself more in the middle of the box and then her pee is elongated. I rescued her and had her spayed but she has always been a sprayer; once I caught her peeing against a baseboard, and another time a door. That behaviour seems to have passed, thankfully, and she now uses the boxes. I can always distinguish HER pee, because it is either down the side of the box or L-O-N-G, and she NEVER covers it! She is also the only one of my six cats that scratches inappropriately on my wood door and a particular windowsill. She seems to have a preference for wood, so I wish she would just use the wood posts on one of the many cat trees I provide for my felines! Despite her quirks, she is a darling.
