QUESTION:

I have a male 4 yo cat (Uun-neutered male) that occasionally urinates outside the litter box. There is an older male (neutered) cat in the house and we have two litter boxes. Any ideas?

ANSWER:

Hi William,

Thank you for contacting me regarding the issue you are having with your cat.

You could try adding a third litter box as one box per cat plus an extra one is recommended.

The problem might be your unneutered cat. When a cat in not altered they are more likely to mark their territory and go outside the litter box.

Chuck & Don's carries a product called Feliway that you can use along with altering your cat. Feliway is a plug in that emits pheromones that helps behavior marking outside the litter box.

I would recommend you call you veterinarian and see if he/she thinks altering will help along with the use of Feliway to stop your cat's marking.

Good luck and thanks for the question.
