How on top of litter box cleaning are you? I find that one of my cats expects a pristine box (scoop 2-3 times a day) or she will just do her business on the floorHello everyone, first post here.
I've read other threads on the matter and I want to share my problem. English is not my first language to bear with me.
My 2 years old fluffy cat has always had issues on this matter. He got neutered at 7 months cause he started peeing everywhere and kept going even after that.
His fav places to pee outside of the litter box are CARPETS, we had to remove all the carpets in the house cause he would just pee on it on and off.
In November what started as his usual "I'm peeing on the floor behavior" turned out to be UTI with crystals and he had to spend 3 days at the clinic. It got bad to the point he couldn't pee and it was horrible.
Since then, he started a Urinary food only diet, it was hard to find a combo he liked but we figured it out.
Now something is clearly going on and I don't know what it is. He seems healthy, eats, plays a lot, doesn't behave at all like he did we I had to take him to the clinic. But he started once again peeing outside the litter box on the floor every now and then.
He pees two times a day now that he's on the Urinary diet ( when he was on normal food he used to pee much more )
I'm starting to think it's a behavioral problem cause he mostly does this when we get home from work and at night before we go to sleep.
He also has this bad habit of attacking my legs and hurting me when I don't give him food immediately.
I'm trying to figure out if all of this is stress related or if he's starting to have issues with his bladder again. Can that happen even if he's on a diet?
I texted my Vet earlier and i'll wait for an answer tomorrow ( hopefully ) but I want to hear your opinions
Thank you
