Sasha has decided that she does not want to use her litter boxes any more. No health issues, boxes spotlessly clean. There is a box on each floor of the house. The main problem area is my bedroom, she has always been a bit naughty there - we started with the box in the bathroom which was fine until she stopped using it and wee'd by the side of my bed. Moved the box to the side of the bed and all was well for a while. Then she started wee'ing by the side of the box! A couple of days ago, she sniffed around her box, poked at it, walked into the bathroom and wee'd on the floor! I picked her up and put her in the box, she jumped right out. She tried to do the same yesterday but I got to her in time and put her in the box - no wee - she waited till we went downstairs and she went into the garden for a wee. I changed the litter to a new brand and also put another box in the bathroom. (I am surrounded by litter boxes!) She doesn't always come up to the bedroom when I go to bed, most times she comes up around 4am. I am wondering if I should take her upstairs when I go up and put her in the bathroom with her bed, toys and stuff and keep her there through the night until she gets the hang of using the box in there again?
I don't really want to lock her up 24/7 as right now I am not working and she has the run of the house plus a little bit of garden time. But I'd like to stop her current box problems.
Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks
