Can I have the lid off yours. Mine insist on all litter being outside of box. And I got rid of my nice litter box long time ago. Now I need it back and im too cheap cause soon they will be pottying outside with the rest of them.

For the sweet person that left me red because I let my cats out, My babies love to go outside and lay on my porch. For the most part they do not kill the songbirds. They kill moles and bunnies. I have tried to keep them inside and they wont be haveing any of it. So get over it. I dont like it when they kill other animals but its the circle of life food chain. And if you could see how proud they are to show mama what they brought in. And my oldest cat was just the other day out showing the kittens how its done with a small mouse. They make me so proud.

Your cat is upset.

Any suggestions?

My cat did that one time yrs ago when he had a urinary tract infection/stones...he peed right in front of me on my couch (got rid of that couch quick...). He was trying to get my attention.

Try using two litterboxes. You are supposed to have at least one litterbox per cat. Also, she may be sensing your pregnancy and the fact that your husband is tending to her litter may be causing her to act out. She may be just trying to get YOUR attention because she misses you taking care of her. Try to pay extra attention to her with extra scratches behind the ears and pets here and there. When the baby gets here she will most likely react to that too. The best thing you can do is let her investigate the baby while your holding him/her so she can see that things are ok. Then REALLY make sure you give her plenty of attention or she will be jealous of the baby too. Good Luck.

Put the litter box on a large sheet of plastic and see what she does. Cats don't like to poo on plastic.
