We have 2 hairless cats, with 2 litter boxes that are routinely cleaned. The female cat has started pooping outside of the litter box. She still urinates inside the box, but for the past 2 months she has pooed outside the litter box almost every time. We clean it with soap & water to get rid of any smells, and we will sweep daily to get any excess litter off the ground as well. The boxes are cleaned daily or every other day, but no matter the consistency, she'll still do it.
Any ideas? I may call the vet tomorrow, as it's getting out of control. We were hoping it was a temporary thing, but it's ongoing, and embarassing to walk into the house with some friends to have the whole area smell like poop. My fiance loves the cats, but is talking about getting rid of her if this isn't something that can be fixed.
Any ideas? Could it be a medial issue where it hurts her to poo? She was fine with it for like a year and a half before this started.

I forgot to add that some cats also do not like sharing litter boxes.
