My 2 year old persian has been peeing on the carpet for the last 3 months! After she started peeing right outside the litter box, I took everyone's advice and got her spayed and checked out at the vet. She's recovered from the spaying and she has no problems, and no UTI. But she still pees on the carpet! The house stinks so bad at this point!
The litter box was upstairs, and that was where she was peeing right outside the box. We moved the litter box downstairs and used an enzyme cleaner to clean the pee upstairs, although the smell hasn't gone away so I don't know how well it worked. She now pees outside of the litter box downstairs, as well as upstairs where she used to pee. But, she'll go about 4 days peeing perfectly in the litter box and then go on the carpet a couple times, then go back to the litter box. I just don't know what to do! There's pee upstairs and downstairs. The house smells so bad, no matter how many bottles of enzyme cleaner I use the smell won't come out. We tried giving her extra attention and love, and it doesn't help. We don't want to get rid of her, but we can't keep a cat that pees on the carpet. No one seems to know why she's behaving like this, she was perfect up until this point and always went in her box. Please help me!!!
