We adopted a stray 2 years ago. She was 3 then, according to our vet. She refuses to poop in the litter box. She will pee if her front paws are on the floor and back paws on the rim of the litter box. We have tried everything. We have recently moved into a new house and can't allow her to to ruin the new floors. I have confined her to the bathroom in our old house and put tile down. ( She has never walked on tile before.) My thoughts were that if I can get her to confine her pooping to the utility room (tiled) in the new house I can live with that.
I have also bought her a harness and considered taking her out 2 or three times a day to see if she will poop outside. Has anyone ever tried this? I don't want to get rid of her and I can't put her outside because she has been declawed and we live near a busy street.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
