My cat was outdoors most of the summer, and we brought him in a few weeks ago cos it's too cold for him now. He usually attempts to use the litter tray but frequently misses. The day before yesterday I cleaned up after him 6 times. I have no clue what the problem is. He uses his tray once, then refuses to use it again. Don't get me wrong, it gets completely emptied once a day, and scooped as often as I can. But the horrible little runt has started pooing on the kitchen floor, on the opposite side of the room to his tray! It's really getting to me. He's a horrible cat anyway, he doesn't clean his bum after himself, and he flicks his poo everywhere, like three feet away from wherever he decided to squat. To be honest, and I never thought I'd say this, I'm thinking of getting rid of him. I can't tolerate cleaning up 6 messes a day, as well as wiping his bum which he HATES. He's also up on the worktops every chance he gets - we have to cover it in paper because otherwise, he could be leaving poo particles everywhere if he gets up in the middle of the night before I have the chance to clean his bum.
So not happy with him at the moment, so any advice would be welcome.
