We live in the Middle East where there are a lot of stray cats and have gathered two despite not being particularly catty people. The first lives mainly in the garden and is older. More recent addition is now a little over one year old but was a teeny baby when she came to us.
The two cats hate each other and honestly I probably didn’t do the best job of introducing them in the early days. More recently the older cat has taken to yelling at windows and the two sort of fight together through the windows. In a similar timescale, little one has started weeing in ‘her room’ (where she has food, prefers to sleep etc) not in the litter tray.
Vet says there’s nothing physically wrong with her. I’ve been cleaning the wee with vinegar and water mix but now planning to buy a stronger cleaner because she definitely returns to the same spots (though finds new ones too). Is it worth getting some sort of feliway plug in? Would catnip calm her? I also wondered about making her food more interactive to take her mind off things… but that might be a bit out there?
Really grateful for any tips. It’s so hard to find homes for cats here so rehoming isn’t an option for either.
