HELP!!! Please help!
Backstory == adopted a kitten from a rescue house of unknown history.. she was estimated to be 8 weeks old, have had her two months now, so again, estimate (three different vets gave three different ages?) that she is around 4 months old now. After her initial settling in stage, a very timid, nervous kitten has warmed up and is starting to be a little feisty thing. She's adorable. Was litter trained from the first day and has had zero issues.
Until about 2 weeks ago... she peed on my bed in the morning when we woke up. She isn't that into sleeping next to me or cuddling up in my arms, but she does like to snuggle up at my feet and will sleep there all night. The first time she peed on me, I thought it was cute she woke up and came up closer to my head to snuggle... but nope, she came up there to PEE.
Unfortunately this has now happened about every other day, usually always in the morning, but last night, she did it when I wasn't even in the bed and just squatted down and peed.
I have read for HOURS on this site, over a dozen or two different posts about similar behaviors and methods. Her vet says she does not have a UTI, I got two opinions and tests done. She seems clear in that regard.
I have tried: countless washing, sometimes twice a day, Nature's Miracle, vinegar, baking soda, keeping her in the bathroom at night... this morning I sat in the bathroom with her (and her untouched litter box!) for over an hour and she would not pee. Finally gave up and let her out and not soon after, there was a pee spot right in the same spot that had been doused with Nature's Miracle the night before.
This is so unlike her. I am at my wit's end. I have read everything here, on many other sites, I have spent hours researching, training, coaxing, loving on her... I just cannot figure out what I need to do.
PLEASE HELP! I know this is such a long post, for my first post, but I cannot figure out what to do.
