My cat Daisy has been pregnant for quite a while and obviously it's bugging her because she's a really antsy-active cat. So she's become rather lazy and sleeps most of the time and uses the litter box often. Lately she's been what has appeared to be peeing in a corner near the door. She's never had problems with not using the litter box and we cleaned up the spot and put newspaper over it to see if she would do it again and she scratched up the newspaper and peed on the floor again. I thought maybe she was just having some kind of weird discharge, but maybe not?
Does anyone know if she's doing this because she's going to have her kittens soon and she's stressed or if there might be something wrong? Thanks.

To be safe, I would get her vet-checked-

Hi and welcome to TCS.


A pregnant cat will usually use the litter box all the way through pregnancy so Daisy may be telling you that she is ill by urinating in the corner. I agree with hissy, it's time to take her to the vet. She may have a urinary tract infection or something else may be going on. Also, to clean up the spot, use an enzymatic cleaner which breaks down the enzymes in the urine so that Daisy is not attracted to using the same spot again.

OK, what would be some good enzymatic cleaners out there? We used citrus cleaners to repel her, but she keeps peeing there, so maybe it's not helping? She still uses the litter box, but she pees there everyday.
