Hiya peeps.
Yes my cat is driving me nutty!
Ive had her 3weeks now, for the first 10 days she used the litter tray no problems (did notice she is very close to the edge as her business hits the inside side of the tray (high one).) Since then her poo has been found next to the litter tray. When i have seen her poo, she is actually in the tray but her bottom is over the edge!!!! , and hence the little accidents! Ive tried putting the lid on the tray, she won't use it at all then!
Now ive noticed she is not weeing in the litter tray (round the back of it!), or when she is, its the same problem with her bottom being out, and my carpet getting a good watering!
My friend brought me round a spare tray, a normal lower one, and yesterday she wee'd in that, (poo'd in the other one though, succesfully, so i was pleased), but this morning i awoke to find a wee stain on the carpet next to the new litter tray. Im not sure if she was in it or not.
What i don't get is she used her tray fine, when she first arrived, so im not sure its just because she does not like the type litter, or the tray, be it the tray is high, but it was not a problem for the first 10 days.
So i dont't know what s going on with her! Or how to solve her pooing/weeing over the edge of the tray(s).
All i do know is that i can't keep waking up to find wee and poo on the carpet, its such a nightmare to clean, and is knackering me out!
My mum says to return her back (as her previous owners said if she was a problem i could), but i don't really want to!, but i don't see any other option if she carries on like this
