Hey everyone. It looks like we have a problem. We have three cats, one is 16, one is 14, and one is about 5 or so. Lately though, they've all not been using their litter boxes, even when they're constantly kept clean.
The 15 year old one seems to be having the msot trouble. She was recently diagnosed with a hyperthyroid problem, and even with daily medication, is eating 4-5 times a day. But along with this, she refuses to use her litter box. I'm not entirly sure what the 5 yr old ones problem is. I think he mostly uses it and goes outside, but he still refuses to use a clean box at time.
The oldest one has always had this problem, for the last several years (urinating on anything and everything). Tonight, one of the cats peed on a bean bag that we've had for years. It wasn't new or anything, but there was just a big puddle inside of it.
So DU, I call upon you for helpful ideas, suggestions and experiences. My parents are just about ready to make these guys outdoor cats unless this stops. None of us really want to see this happen, but we're all tired of cleaning up after them.
