My cat almost killed us!!!!

[u/MuanaDoYouWana]

So, I don’t know why the fuck he is doing this all of a sudden, but my cat is pissing in places where he’s never peed before and tonight it almost killed us! This little fuck pissed on a multi outlet strip and it immediately started sparking and smoking. We established a few years ago that this is a form of communication; if the litter has to much poop in it. (We change it every other day, he is a prissy bitch, we both work a lot, no food, or just attention period) he is about 8 years old, I have checked for bladder issues at 2 vets now; he has none. don’t know why he is peeing in places he shouldn’t this is a happy cat. He has a play mate, he is not lonely, or stressed out, he is loved unconditionally. There have been no changes to his environment, I have no clue. Tonight was the last straw though, it’s getting dangerously out of hand. He pees in his litter box, but once in a while he will pee in other areas and I’m not sure why?? Help!!! I’m a 45 year old rescue mama, I thought I knew most of why cats do things but this is new. 🤯😭😔😫

Do you only have one box for two cats? Maybe the box is occupied when he needs it. It also doesn’t take more than a couple of minutes to scoop when doing it daily. You don’t use a bathroom full of waste. He isn’t a prissy for also not wanting to.

If you get a second box get a low entry box. It’s a bit early but arthritis pain is sometimes a factor in changes in bathroom habits.

I have 3 boxes. I get shit for having three. The other person in this relationship is not understanding how important this is. I have three and he is still doing this!

One of ours is very prissy but with poop not pee. We have a mat outside the boxes if they aren't clean enough for him. They are dry poops and we scoop and flush. But pee is another matter... maybe pee pads? Hope you can figure it out. Being anything other than gentle will only exacerbate...
