Cat Peeing Everywhere in House? – Why and How to Stop This?

The reasons commonly cited when cats are being thrown out of the house is somehow related to the cat’s urination problem. Many cat owners find it un-tolerable when their cats started peeing everywhere else in the house except in the litter box. This is understandable. Who would want a house that is full of urine smell and not to mention the daunting task of having to remove the urine odor from places where your cats urinate.

Many cat owners always go away with the thoughts that their cats are doing this out of spite. But this is simply not true. Cats do not do things simply out of spite. There are reasons where some cats are not using their litter box as expected and cat owners have to find out these underlying reasons first before they can put a stop to this unruly behavior seen in their cats.

Here are some common causes of the litter box problem seen in cats:

Medical problems:
Some medical problems may cause inappropriate urination in cats. These include urinary tract infections (UTI), cystitis, kidney stones or blockage and diabetes. There is usually pain involved in urination for cats suffering from these illness and they may associate the use of the litter box with the discomfort. Thus avoid or stop using the litter box totally. When your cats suddenly stop using the litter box, it’s always good to keep a close eye on them as some of these problems may be life threatening and medical attention must be given immediately.

Your Cat’s Age
For old cats, especially those with arthritic problems, bladder control problems like incontinence may be caught short when needing to urinate. Provide more litter boxes, placed at multi locations to make it more accessible to your geriatric cats or cats with physical limitations may help solve the problem.

Stress
Stress can cause litter-box problems. Cats can be stressed by events that their owners may not think of as traumatic. Changes in things that even indirectly affect the cat, like moving, adding new animals or family members to your household—even changing your daily routine—can make your cat feel anxious
In a multi-cat household, some cats may control access to the litter box making the litter box inaccessible to the weaker or timid ones.

Territorial Marking
Cats that are not spayed or neutered will tend to spray in areas around the house instead of using the litter box. This is an act of territories marking and usually the problem can be easily resolved by spaying or neutering your cats once they reaches puberty, usually 6 months of age.

Litter Box Management
If your cat isn’t comfortable with her litter box or can’t easily access it, she probably won’t use it. Here are some litter box related problems that may cause your cat to eliminate outside of her box:


1. Litter box is dirty
2. Insufficient number of litter box available. Cats prefer to have their own litter box so if you keep more than one cat, be sure to make one available for each cat.
3. Size and types of the litter box. Too small a size may not appeal to your cat and geriatric cats or cats with physical limitations may have a difficult time using certain types of litter boxes such as top-entry boxes, or litter boxes with high sides.
4. Too much litter. Cats prefer one to two inches of litter
5. Types of cat litter used. Cats prefer soft texture litter that is kind to their soft paws.
6. Location of litter box. Like people, cats develop preferences for where they like to eliminate and may avoid locations they don’t like. This means they might avoid their litter box if it’s in a location they dislike.
