We've had our 2 Siamese brothers for 5 months now...they have just turned 7 and seem to be in excellent health. They had a clean bill when we rehomed them from a very good cat rescue. They are very different in personality and when they frst arrived cat 1 wee'd on our bed... Angry but it's not been a real issue...more than usually its been because I have forgotten to clean the litter.

However...over the last few days he's pissed on our bed three times, dds bed once and then on DD2 bed this evening AND on ours!

We have been out all day but could that really be the reason? I know it's hm because I usually know where his brother is at the time...he sleeps under the sofa all the time.

THey're very hard work anyway for cats...talkative, bossy, fusssy, we love them but the bed stinks now! I am having to buy new bedding as the duvets stink!

What can I do? We are shuttng bedroom doors but the DDs often forget and it's impossible to police with 2 small kids...up and downstairs all day.

The cats don't have a bed of their own...could this be the reason? They have often slept on top of our bed when DH comes in off night shift..he has liked them doing this but not anymore! They sleep on top of our wardrobe too...their litter has not been changed or moved and nor has their food,

HELP US PLEASE! Before I smell like a mad old cat woman!

One of our cats took to weeing. Territorial? Has their routine changed?

One of my 4 cats has started weeing on the bathroom floor at night ....I think it's my 4 year old female
She doesn't come in the house much during summer months but now winter is here she sleeps up in either my bedroom or one of my ds....we have a catflap which she uses to come in the house but for some reasen would rather use the bathroom floor as her toilet than go back outside to go!!!! It's driving me nuts as it stinks!!!!

Ours did it after another cat chewed a chunk out of him one night :-(

Territorial perhaps? First I'd try extra litter trays in different places (they usually say one per cat and one spare). Has anything changed recently? Spending more time indoors or a new rouine for example?

Make sure you buy cleaning products for cats, normal ones smell of ammonia and just make the cat likely to wee in the same spot again.

Good luck!
