I had a miniature pincher that would do that, just poo anywhere he felt like it. In all the time we had him, he would not do it outside or on the papers we put down for him. When we had new carpet installed in the house, the very first morning I stepped in mini pin poo at the bottom of the stairs. I called the vet and asked him to find a new home for that dog.

I hope that Hailey is ok. We had a cat that peed all over the floors. We even moved and she still peed. She was mad that we had a baby. But, there is nothing worse than waking up and stepping in a yucky surprise that is left on the floor! Good luck on your ebay auction! Hope you won:) Beckys last blog post..A Highlight

Wow– I wonder if teeni is on to something! I hope you get the inappropriate pooing under control! My cats pee on our dirty laundry on the basement floor, if it’s been there for more than 24 hours. I HATE it… but poo would really push me over the edge.

Oops – just thought of something else. Cats do weird things to let us know when they are sick sometimes. I’ve heard of cats going purposely just outside of their litterbox when they have been sick. I had one episode like that way back when and it was a male cat who had blood in his urine. If he hadn’t gone outside the box like that, I never would have noticed the blood because I was using clumping litter and it would have been difficult to see. Fortunately, he let me know he was sick the only way he could and I got him to the vet where we found that the brand of cat food he was eating was causing crystallization in his kidneys or bladder (I can’t remember which now) and that caused him pain and blood on urination. So a quick change of foods and I had a better kitty. Anyway, you mentioned the Elizabethan collar thing so it could be that the scratching is due to the itching of an infection or something and she is just somehow letting you know something is wrong. I dunno.

I’ve heard people had success in taking one of their, um, “decorations” and placing it into the litterbox and leaving it there as a way to mark it as their appropriate spot for pooing because they may be acting out from a move or smell other animals from previous owners in the house. I haven’t had this issue myself so I’m just going by what I’ve heard from others. But it sounds like it’s worth a try. Although, who knows – maybe the garage thing is a good idea too. Keep us posted.

I think that she is just telling you that she is mad that you moved her. Cats are real funny that way Maybe closing her up in the bathroom all night with her catbox? And nothing in the floor to “decorate”? I hope that she does not get in a permanent habit.
