I have noticed before that my young cats who aren't quite 2 yet (will be in April) seem to pee more than my other cats. Of course these aren't my first young cats as all of mine started out young naturally but I really don't remember any of them peeing that much. They spend some time in a back room, mostly because they get into everything and sometimes I need them out of my hair so they have a litterbox that is exclusively their's and I always notice that there are big pee puddles in it as they aren't that fond of burying it. Also, whereas they used to stick to their main box, when they aren't in the back room, they like to use the other two boxes and as soon as I let them out, they go peeing in the boxes and again, it's usually a pretty good amount. I feel like this might be excessive. I always noticed before that their pee puddles were on the large side as I don't use clumping litter, but they never usually took to peeing in the other boxes too. I feel there is a territorial aspect coming into play here as well as I think they want to "mark" the boxes with their scent as well. I just don't know. I'm at a loss. Sadly I know even young cats can get diseases so I'm concerned. Both have had checkups in the last year. One just had one last month. Of course no bloodwork was done as it really isn't standard with cats that age and I didn't bring this up then. In addition, my other cats have been having litterbox anomalies as well, oddly enough, which I posted in the Behavioral section. If I'm to be honest, I feel like all my cats have been peeing more than usual. I feel like I am on constant litterbox patrol but I don't always catch who is doing what. Frankly I'm exhausted.
