Hi everyone!
I'm new to the forum. I decided to register so that I can solve some doubts about my cats!
I have a 2 year old Russian Blue and I recently adopted an abandoned kitten. In his first weeks, since he was basically feral, he didn't want anyone near him, but would do his business in the litterbox normally, as long as he was alone.
With time he warmed up to me and my friends, and now is very sweet and docile.
But sometimes (usually once a week) he will poop or pee outside of the box. Once he peed in my pillow, other time in my bed and today he pooped in the shower.
I don't have a second litterbox yet, since I wanted a specific one with a filter, because I live in an apartment, and it was unavailable at the stores, so I had to place an order. Its supposed to arrive this week.
Initially I thought this was the problem, but he seems to poop and pee in the box normally, even though he has to share it. He only does it outside sporadically.
I've already taken him to the vet, and everything seems to be fine! What could be causing this? Perhaps with the new box he might stop, but I just don't get how he only decides to evacuate ouside sometimes and not all the time, if the box is the problem.
If anyone has any suggestion or can help I appreciate it!
