We have two male neutered cats, I think they are about 10 years old. They have never had any problems using their litter box, even when moving to a new house, taking them to our vacation house, etc. Recently, we installed a cat door to the basement (that's where their litter box is.) My parents tapped it open (they didnt want it to hit them and scare them on the way out) and they also left the door open (as usual) so they could get through that way. They put some food on the other side and shut the door to show them to jump through,but after that they opened it. One cat has no peed 3 times in my parents bedroom (which is across from the basement door.) I am not home (away at school) but they say he doesnt seem to be in pain or anything else unusual. The first two times it was right after they put the door in and the last time was about a week away later (yesterday.) They litter box is clean and nothing else but the door has changed.
My mom also mentioned that there has been a female cat in the yard (they are indoor/outdoor cats) so she was wondering if that could be causing the peeing. They were adopted from a shelter and were both neutered as little kittens before they left!
Forgot to add that after the first two pees the cat vomited up worms. They went directly to the vet and were treated. Not sure if that has anything to do with it .
I just saw the inappropriate peeing thread and will read through that. Sorry I am new here!
Any ideas?
