Cat pee'ing on my beds. HELP !

I have a 7 year old persian cat that i have had since she was 8 weeks old and she is spayed. I have 2 kittens that are 5 months old that i have had since they were 8 weeks old. My persian cat started pee'ing on my beds when i brought the new kittens in to the house. As long as i keep the bedroom doors closed, the persian will use the litter box. She does not pee in other parts of the house and uses the box faithfully as long as she doesnt have access to a bed. Its difficult with three bedrooms to be sure that all doors are closed at every moment of the day and night. at night we have to close all bedroom doors when sleeping. the persian has even pee'd in the bed while we were in the bed several times. we are slaves to the cat becuase we cant live normally with going in and out of bedrooms like normal people. IF she catches site of the bed, and has a split second that she can get to the bed before we see her then she uses the bed. she never pees on the floor, never on the furniture and never on piles of dirty clothes thrown in the hallway for the laundry. She has been declawed so putting her outdoors , i feel would be inhumane as i dont think she could make it outdoors. I hate to give her away, because of not knowing for sure what kind of home she would have. She is a very moody cat. She comes to us for petting, but when we pet her she gets up set and attempts the scratching process and slapping at us and even biting. the vet says she does NOT have any urinary problems. Anyone have any suggestions, please help. thanks

Have the beds been cleaned with a cleaner like nature's Miracle or something similar? You want to make sure the urine smell is completely gone so she won't think it is okay to pee there.

Since this started when the kittens were brought in, it is likely that the kittens stress her out and she is reacting. Are you giving both her and the kittens the smae amount of attention? Sometimes a lesser amount of attention can lead to behavior problems.

Try to keep the bedroom doors closed as much as possible, until the behavior has been stopped. It may not be as convenient, but if it prevents inappropriate peeing then it should be done. You might want to consider getting Feliway for the bedrooms, it may help.

"I have a 7 year old persian cat that i have had since she was 8 weeks old and she is spayed.....She has been declawed so putting her outdoors , i feel would be inhumane as i dont think she could make it outdoors.

ok, just a couple questions here....why did you declaw her? And what does "putting her outdoors" have to do with anything?

"I have 2 kittens that are 5 months old that i have had since they were 8 weeks old."

Are these kittens also declawed? If not, even if you "think" they are ok together, remember that cats are nocturnal and these 2 will know full well that they have an advantage over the older cat. 2 against 1. Those kinds of odds could make kitty act out.

"the vet says she does NOT have any urinary problems."

How long ago did you get her checked? Sometimes, infections will not show up immediately. A re-check might be in order.

"we are slaves to the cat becuase we cant live normally with going in and out of bedrooms like normal people." and "She is a very moody cat."

Sounds to me like the persian is the one who can't live "normally" with the others since her defences were mutilated.

If her recent bill of health shows there is nothing wrong with her physically, then all of the above should tell you that she is trying to tell you that there is something wrong psychologically.

It is not uncommon at all that clawed & declawed cats cannot get along. According to her line of thinking, she had superiority in the house until these 2 came along. Being kittens, then like to wrestle & fight....but she can't defend herself. You could be experiencing "stress" peeing....but I would take her for a 2nd test just to make sure there is nothing physically wrong with her.

Personally I think it is inhumane to declaw, but that is just my opinion. There could be several reasons here:

Your cat is stressed out because of the new kittens. You talk about litter box? Surely you have more than one litter pan for three cats? You should have four pans at least. It is possible too that the litter bothers your persian's paws. I'm sorry but I am stunned that you would declaw a persian cat! They are beyond mellow and if you bought her from a breeders, it is doubtful that this breeder condones declawing (as most don't)

The litter could be hurting her feet, and therefore she opts for a softer place to pee-

Make sure you have enough litter pans for everyone. Use rabbit pellets for your litter (rabbit food) it is softer on the feet of declawed cats, and I just hope you don't decide to declaw anymore cats that come into your home.

Its obvious the problem started when you added to your cat family. Your Persian is very stressed out by the new kittens. You declawed your persian! Poor kitty what a shame you felt the need to do that. Now your persian has to live the rest of her life mutilated. Of course shes upset no claws and two new kittens that she can not defend herself against...
And put her out??? With no claws and a Persian at that. Persians for one thing are not at all suited for the out doors! Thats not a option...Rehome if you must but not out doors.. I would have her checked again for a bladder infection..
Make sure she has a clean cat box all her own with litter suitable for a decalwed cat.
If cats where meant to have no claws they would be born that way..
