Hi guys, can someone please give me some answers. My 11 year old cat one day poo'd on the floor. We didn't really think much about it other than the fact she must have not been able to make it to the litter box. Well, a couple weeks later, we switched her over to grain-free (My kitten has been on it and I didn't want my childhood cats on the terrible Meow Mix they'd been on no longer. Also my eldest cat was having some throwing up problems all her life, quickly cleared up once we switched by the way) and she had some diarrhea and once again wasn't making it to her litter box, she poo'd all over my brothers bed. On the floor a couple times, so we just assumed it was from the transition or something and also the fact that she is getting older. She would go in the litter box at the same time though, even when she was pooping on the floor, she'd pee in the litter box. Well one night, she went into the litter box and then after jumped on my Dad's bed and pee'd all over it. So we took her into the vet and she had some kind of infection (they weren't very specific so I can't tell you what also they told my dad and not me) and gave her some antibiotic and a bunch of tests and sent her home. We were supposed to see what the antibiotic did for a month and then check back. Well it's been about a week and she's continuing to poop on the floor?! and tonight she pooped in my dad's closet and peed on his bed. Yet she'll go in the litter box like she has to go to the bathroom but doesn't go, and decides to go somewhere else. My Dad unfortunately doesn't have the money to be doing blood work and all that so I'm not sure why she's doing this? Today we bought a second litter box and put it in the area she likes to poo on the floor. She hasn't used it. Not sure what to do at this point. My Dad's saying he wants to put her down if it doesn't stop and that just pisses me off. You don't just kill a cat because they're a little sick. Especially since she could be pooping on the floor and be completely healthy? So can someone PLEASE give me some idea of why she could be doing this.
