Hello,
I have read through the FAQ and still no answer.
Here is the background info on my cat
10 years old male, neutered. I have owned him since he was a kitten. I have taken him to the vet (last week), he is fine.
He has moved several times had a dog introduced - no issues.
We have two litter boxes. Same litter he has always had. Same litter box location, cleaned everyday.
It began when we re-arranged a room for our upcoming baby. This was long before baby arrived.
Cat began pooping on the floor under the crib. The floor is carpet. If the door to that room was closed he would go in the litter box. He had never pooped on the floor before this.
Baby has been here for a month, I have been blocking the cats access to that room.
One day we moved a baby swing into another room to cleanup, the cat pooped under that swing.
I know that it is obvious that the cat has an issue with the baby. I have been trying to give him extra attention, brushing etc. It has not helped.
He got into the baby room today and pooped again. This cannot continue, this could harm our baby. We are beginning to dislike the cat.
I have done everything I can think of.
The vet recommended a product Feliway it is very expensive I do not think I should have to pay 400 a year so he does not poop on the floor.
Does anyone have any ideas?
