Advice/Help for a cat problem?

I have one 13 old female cat and recently about 2 months ago took in two 6 year old male cats that I will be taking care of for one year.


For the first month, month and 1/2 there was no problems between them but recently my older cat has started using the couch as her litter box.


Of the two male cats, 1, Flannel, has had no problems with my older cat. The other, Pogo, has sometimes been chasing her, I don't believe aggressively but perhaps playfully. Recently he has been hanging around the room where I keep her litter box and since he's in there she won't go in. I moved the boys litter box to a different room but the problem with my older cat has gotten so bad that I have to take her to the litter box myself and make sure Pogo doesn't bother her.


I'm not sure if he's hanging around that room to prevent her or she just doesn't want to go near him and thus using my couch as a her crapping ground.


Anyone have any advice to help solve this problem?Advice/Help for a cat problem?
tip #1. to get rid of any of the cat pee scent - especially on clothes %26amp; bedding - use arm %26amp; hammer detergent. It's baking soda based so it gets rid of all kitty's urine smell.





I had a cat like this named Meu (me-you), and at first it was a bit of a challenge to figure out why she was going everywhere, and then with the help of our vet we quickly solved the problem :-). In Meu's case - it was fear of being attacked by other playful cats when she wanted to do her business. Cat's like us, like their privacy - that's why they cover their litter in the first place.

Try and work this out - she's really well worth your time. A healthy happy kitty is an amazing thing. The pound is never the answer.Advice/Help for a cat problem?
the general rule of thumb is one litter box per cat.. ideally in at least 2 different parts of the home.
the way i see it. she's got a big attitude bout u bringin them up in her wirld, n sharin her mama/daddy. plus u godda remember, thats her place. I truely believe it'a all attitude.


Now if u put all the litter boxes side by side, n give em a week. wut happens. put plastic on the couch n cayanne pepper too, if u can. she wont' wanna go ther no more. u can always stand by the door and watch em. n if he tries any funny stuff wen she cums in then u can be ready with a spray bottle at him. if he iz u no. jus casually lean up again the door jam waitin n watchin. n u don't even godda chance him. it's very effective.


justa thot tho, iv'e dun this n it wirks well, n then in more time they jus learn they godda git along.
