What To Do If Your Cat Urinates Outside The Litter Box



Have you noticed your cat urinating outside of her litter tray? There are various reasons for this behavior. The first thing you have to do is to ensure that any underlying medical condition does not cause it. No one knows; it might be a symptom of a severe disease. Cats are good at hiding their pain, but sometimes, their behavior indicates when something is wrong with them. Your vet is the only one who can tell whether your cat is sick. If your cat is free from any illness, figure out if the litter box is in an attractive location at home.

Cats tend to be picky. Some resist using a litter tray when placed in an unclean and unsafe area at home. Try relocating your pet’s tray and observe if she will use it properly this time. Otherwise, her behavior might be caused by a different factor: stress. Stressed cats manifest their negative emotions through their behaviors and actions. Eliminate anything you suspect is the reason for your cat’s stress. After that, observe how she will use the litter tray.

Persistent litter box issues should warrant an appointment with your animal hospital to make sure that your pet’s behavior is not caused by an underlying health issue.
