I made a post on one of my cats peeing on the bed a few months ago, and now we've figured out who the culprit is. Its Mogley, the one and only male cat (11yrs) and he ended up having crystals and hyperthyroidism. He's been on the crystal food from the vet for a couple months now and he still pees on the bed every chance he gets. My bf had just about had enough, and I don't know what to do anymore. We try to keep him downstairs at night while my bf's son is sleeping (that's the only bed he pees on) and we shut the door during the day but with a 5 yr old boy doors don't always stay shut and I normally have to wash at least 3 sets of blankets a week.
I'm basically looking for ideas and suggestions of what I can try to get him to stop peeing where he shouldn't be. Its getting to a point where the whole upstairs of our house smells like cat pee and its just not healthy. We've got a plastic mattress cover and I spray the bed down with an enzyme cleaner whenever I clean it and I've even tried spraying lemon jiuce on the plastic to see if that would keep him from peeing (he hates any citrus smells) but that only worked for maybe 4 hours.
