I saw and read the information about unapropriate pooping, and have tried several of the ideas mentioned there.
I thought maybe if I supplied more detail into the whole situation, someone would have experience with the particular case or something similar.
My cat is about a year old, she was born and raised in an appartment that had 2 big dogs, and 2 other older female cats. She quickly became the "alpha" cat if you will, and got along very well with the dogs. Out of me and my two roomates, I was the only one who take care of her, or showed her any form of attention/affection, and she therefore became mine.
I recently moved into a new appartment with my girlfriend, and no other animals. I brought her over, and she quickly ran into my office and refuses to leave except to eat. I moved her food and water to the kitchen so she would be forced to explore a little... I'm gradually moving them further and further. The litter box (covered, exactly like she's used to) is in the office. She won't use it, and makes her way into my bedroom for her bathroom urges... the only time she ever goes in there I might add. I tried moving the box so it faced a wall for more privacy, and moved it to the bedroom. Doesn't work.
Although I'm still not 100% sure, I believe she's pregnant. I've always been very careful and she never went outside. One afternoon as I was out getting groceries, a stray male managed to claw it's way into my bedroom through the screen and when I came back I found it laying next to my cat. I chased it out, and thought maybe it was ok because for the three following days she was still in heat. She hasn't been in heat since, and her nipples are bigger and pinker.
Is there anything I'm overlooking? Any help is appreciated!
