Hi, I ended up adopting an elderly cat 2 months ago because my neighbours weren’t able to take her to their new house. I was told that the cat was in good health except she was losing teeth. Anyway since she’s been here she has soiled (urine and faeces) all over my carpets almost everyday. She has a litter tray and I’ve tried many different litters but she refuses to use it.
Last week I discovered that she’s never used a tray before and instead would go outside.
She’s still eating well (the same wet food that’s she’s always had) and perfectly happy, still pretty quick on her feet, able to climb pretty well and doesn’t seem to be in any pain
Anyway I’m booking a vet visit next week as I’m beginning to lose my mind with the faeces every morning.
I’ve looked into insurance but because of her age there isn’t much out there except accident only or fixed term only.
Has anyone any advice or experience of this?
