Hello, Everyone!
so my kitten is about 3 months now, I got him at 8 weeks and he was potty trained and ready to go. I had not had any issues with him until now. I moved the litter box from my closet to the living room because it was getting a little stinky and honestly I don't know why I had the bright idea to put it there anyway. My restroom is too small and I had read somewhere that they like privacy so I guess that't why... anyway... I've noticed that he is starting to poop on the carpet about 3 feet away from his litter box. That didn't start immediately after I moved the box either, it started maybe a week after. I know that when it was in the closet, we accidentally forgot to leave the door open and he ended up pooping in the restroom right next to the toilet and hadn't gone outside his litter box since then. I haven't changed litter, still using the same stuff I was using when I brought him home, I mean I haven't changed brands lol I change his litter once a week and replace it with new stuff. There have been no changes to his behavior otherwise and no other changes at home. It's only two people living in my apartment and the cat so it's not like the living room is a high traffic area.
