Recently there have been puddles and turds around the litter box areas.
I have 5 cats, and no idea who is going outside the boxes.
We have 2 boxes on the main floor, 1 box upstairs, and 4 in the basement.
So far, they've pooped on the main floor and basement. (upstairs isn't frequently used)
The basement is the area with the most outside crap
My mom and I had just cleaned the area really well. We got out all the scattered litter, mopped the floor and changed out the boxes with fresh litter.
The next morning there was pee from one box to the carpet-runner!
Could this be their way of "remarking" their toilet space?
I have to pooper scoop 2-4 times a week, depending on how much they go, so I don't see how they can think it's not clean enough.
I've been lucky because my mom isn't getting upset about it, but I think if they start going on the main floor, she'll become very angry.
Is there anything we can do to try to keep the pee and poo in the box?
Thanks!
