I am in need of serious help! I have 5 cats. Pepperpot & Sugarly are 5 & 1/2, Excalibur is 4, Merlin is 3 and Striker in 9 mths. Pepperpot & Sugarly are female, and the other are male - all are fixed & declawed. We got Striker about 7 mths ago. There have been no changes in our household. For the past 2 months Sugarly has been urinating & defecating in a variety of places in the house. It is never the same place. It has been the couch, my bed, the carpet in at leat 3 different rooms. She still occasionally uses her box, but an accident happens at least every one to two days. I am at my wits end. The vet has not been the most helpful - just stated we can put her on medication (she is not an easy cat to get meds in). She is a very timid cat and knows that she is doing wrong as she hides after doing her business. Does anyone have any ideas out there? Help!!
