My cat started doing it when he had a urinary tract blockage, which is an extremely serious and potentially fatal problem. If you determine that it's definitely a behavioral and not physical problem, you might want to consider getting a second litterbox because sometimes cats are territorial about their litterboxes. Another thing you may want to try is a product called Feliway, it is a little expensive, but pretty effective product that helps cats to stop peeing to mark their territory. Last thing - make sure everything she's peed on is cleaned up super well, you might even want to consider special cleaners in order to fully remove any scent from his urine. Cats will often go back to places they've already urinated to urinate again if they can still smell it.<a href="http://www.safedebthelp.com/personal-debt-help.htm"> Maria</a> First, you might want to take your cat to the vet because going outside of the litterbox can be a sign of a serious problem.

After that, it kinda sounds like you have one litter box for all your cats. In reality, it would be best to have at least four. Each cat needs their own, plus one more because some cats do not like to pee and poop in the same spot. This cat's issue may also be a matter of the kind of litter - some cats have distinct preferences about the feel and smell of the litter.<a href="http://www.telescopebuyingguide.com/galileo-telescope.htm"> Windi Lea</a> It is always a good idea to have physical causes such as illness ruled out when a cat is having litter box problems, so please take the cat to the vet to make sure there is nothing wrong.

Particularly clothes and towels as they have the owners scent on them. Luckily you can wash them, so the odor does not remain for her to go back there. I can only suggest making sure each cat has it's own litter. Or if the older two share and it's ok then give her, her own box. Another very good suggestion I once read was to to the following. take a towel (clean one) and rub the older cats, then rub the new cat then back to the older cat. It does help transfer the smells to each cat, therefore making them appear more familiar.<a href="http://www.besthomeorganizers.com/884"> Oh by Gee it's me!</a> Cats often do this to transfer their smells and mark territory.
