Greetings,
I've had my cat, Norman, for about a year now and he's roughly the same age. Just very recently, he's started defecating on the floor in our living room, for no apparent reason. He has two litterboxes, one upstairs and one downstairs and both are clean. Yet, he'll use them and then hours later decide that the floor in the corner of the living room seems like a fantastic place to take a nice crap. He has had a slight change in diet, going from strictly hard food twice a day to a mix twice a day. He's had canned wet food before in the past and hasn't had any issues with popping on the floor, so I don't know what he's suddenly developed now that he figures he can't make it to the 'box.
I'm at a loss. I'm tired of cleaning it up and I want to give Norman a good smack and ask him why he does such things, but I guess there isn't one, since he's a cat
Anyway, help would be appreciated. I want Norman to stop and I'm not sure if it's feasible to put a box out in the open where he usually does it at the moment.
Thanks
