Cat urine

I could cry. I was just going to bed and our cat has peed on it. This has been a recurring issue. To the point that I keep the door locked but he must have got in earlier. I'm so angry at myself for leaving the door unlocked. I don't know when it could have happened. I must have been in the shower this morning.

I got the vet involved over summer and they thought it was stress related (I'd been on holiday etc and he went berserk, peeing on my clothes, my bed etc).

He hasn't peed in the room since August and I cleaned everything really thoroughly... urine destroyer, baking soda, surgical spirit. I have tried everything. It's a brand new duvet and duvet cover. I only just put them on the bed a week ago.

I am at my wits end. I can't live like this. He's treated like a prisoner with limited access to areas unless supervised.

He's such a lovely, affectionate thing. He's 2.5 yrs old. I really love him but I fear I'm going to have to rehome him. It's so depressing.

Cats really only do this if they're stressed or poorly. Does he have a litter tray? Is he neutered? Have you spoken to your vet about possible UTI? Do you know if there are any new cats in the area?

My cat did this twice randomly.. I realised That his litter tray was not being changed often enough
Make sure you have plenty of clean litter in tray and if he is an outdoor cat provide a litter tray in doors as well for the time being

Yes he's neutered and has litter tray that he uses all the time. The vet ruled out a UTI and said it was behavioural.
