Help. My cat had pooped in my bedroom and I can’t find it.

Ok my cat has done a horrible smelling shit and I can’t find it.

It’s definitely in the bedroom, I’ve looked everywhere. Except obviously I haven’t.

Where might a cat do a “secret poo?”

I’ve checked on my shelves, under the bed, in the pile of fresh washing, in the cupboard. NOTHING.

I’ve tried following the scent 😷 but it’s nowhere to be seen. Please help me before I have to check in to a hotel or sell up!!!

Wardrobe? Shoe box?? When I first got together with now dh dcat pissed in his shoes as often as he could!!

Gingernaut · 28/10/2017 19:29

Shoes.

FangsAlot · 28/10/2017 19:32

Shoes
Drawers
Wardrobe

You must have done something to piss them off to do a covert shit Grin

Tiddlywinks63 · 28/10/2017 19:34

Shoes
Under the bedclothes
Behind the curtains
NDN's cat got on top of the wardrobe and poo'd down the back of it 😖

whatsleep · 28/10/2017 19:34

Send in a fly...... then follow it 😂

Kitee · 28/10/2017 19:34

I’ve just checked the shoes, nothing.

Oh god fangs he did it right after I’d given him a treat stick... although I didnt give him the full thing so maybe that’s why.

Didn’t think of on top of the wardrobe, will check now.

Nope not there.

The smell is wafting through the whole house now.

In the bed.

That's where my cats always used to shit.

I no longer have cats

PurplePillowCase · 28/10/2017 19:42

threaten with the vet unless he shows you?

FangsAlot · 28/10/2017 19:44

Yes the bed, one of mine shat in my bed
😷

StatueInTheSky · 28/10/2017 19:44

are you sure it is in the bedroom? Only we have a litter tray on the top landing and sometimes the only place you can smell that is the corner of the dining room....two flights down and around a corner

it's inexplicable.

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 28/10/2017 19:45

Sorry, no help at all but this is the funniest thing I've read todayGrin

Now I know why I don't own cats. Hope you find your stray 💩

Kitee · 28/10/2017 19:49

Actually IN the bed? Christ, I almost don’t want to look 😷

statue I’m pretty sure. The bedroom is at the end of a corridor and is the only room there (small house) and when I walk towards it the smell becomes potent 😷

I’m going to check in the bed.

Any pile of things that look like they'd be the most difficult to clean.

Might be a, ahem, loose number. In that case it could have slid out of immediate plain sight.

GOOD LUCK.

Am overly invested in a Saturday evening cat shit now. Good old Mumsnet.

Kitee · 28/10/2017 19:53

It’s not in the bed.

I really need to turn the heating on because I’m absolutely freezing but I can’t can I? It’ll just make it 1000000x worse.

Where the hell is it???

FangsAlot · 28/10/2017 19:54

"And what did you do Saturday night? Pub? Meal?"
"Er actually I spent it hunting a hidden cat shit" Grin

BrokeAndBad · 28/10/2017 19:55

Little shit

Kitee · 28/10/2017 19:56

pod 😂

Ok so it could have... “slid” somewhere. I’ve looked down the back of the wardrobe/ chest of drawers. It can’t have Just disappeared!! Confused

He’s normally very good and never does it outside the tray. Why tonight when all I wanted to do was sit and watch tv with a glass of wine???

On the radiator?

Justabadwife · 28/10/2017 19:58

Bit of a dodgy question but what colour are your carpets?
Could It have done a more runny poo right in a corner and its sort of er... run into the carpet?

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 28/10/2017 19:59

I like the above suggestion to release some flies into the room and see where they go

MollyHuaCha · 28/10/2017 20:04

Any luck?

booellesmum · 28/10/2017 20:04

Our cat does this a lot. Her favourite place is under the bed - we have to take the mattress off to see where. She also did it on the window ledge and stained the upvc Blush Good luck hunting it down!
