Anyone have experience with cat urinating outside of box?

Wow, awesome that you figured that out and it worked for you!

Bought some CatAttract litter and am going to replace it with current litter tonight to see what happens. First experiment, cross your fingers for me!

Keep us posted. Good luck!

I have two cats

One of them was neutered kind of late, and, if I do not change the litter everyday, the younger one might have an accident. In order to get rid of the smell, spray with vinegar and water before you vacuum; I also use Febreze on the rugs.

Maybe a second litter box at the other end of the house will do the trick? We adopted a female cat two years ago as a playmate of our senior cat (that notion sounds funny now because the boy and girl do not care much for each other). The husband of the other couple wanted to get rid of her because she was peeing in their bed/rugs because their other three cats always attacked her while using the box.

I did not expect my senior cat attacking the girl cat while she was in the litter box, so after a while she was scared using it here, too.

With patience, two additional litter boxes and Cat Attract litter (and a spray bottle for when the senior cat was about to attack her), she is good to go now. I am so glad that we did not give up on her.

That's so great that you hung in there, many people don't. I've read that inappropriate urination/soiling is the number one reason cats are given up to shelters.

So I changed my cat's box to CatAttract after getting several suggestions to try it and it also had good reviews on various websites. Monday night I dumped the old litter and cleaned out her litterbox and put the new litter in. She's been going in her box ever since. I'm trying not to get too excited yet, since I'll feel more confident when more time passes, since enough time hasn't passed. But, still, I'm hopeful.

I bought a second litter box in case this doesn't continue to work and figured I'll put it somewhere else in the house to encourage her.

At the risk of jinxing it, I just wanted to report that our kitty has been using her box every time since we started using CatAttract litter. Upon the suggestion of a friend, I also removed the towel that we used to keep in front of the box (a sort if doormat if you will) since that was what she was peeing on. The new litter is twice as expensive, but I don't care. It has no dust, clumps great and neutralizes odor without having any odor of its own. It's too early to celebrate, but I feel good about where we're at right now.

After a couple of months of no "accidents," I started to mix the CatAttract litter with regular litter and we are almost done having to buy the expensive litter. I use mainly TidyCat scoopable litter for multiple cat and just top of with CatAttract.
