I think I’m going to have to rehome my cat

[Soubriquet]

I really don’t want to. She’s 7 and I’ve had her since she was 8 weeks old, but she is suddenly starting to wee and poo outside her litter box. She went on my sons bed yesterday.

Vet checked her and she’s completely fine. She’s not stressed either. She literally lays about sleeping all day.

It wouldn’t be so bad if we owned our home but we don’t. We rent. I’m currently in temporary council accommodation but we are working on going into private cos the council doesn’t have anything permanent for us, and I can’t have a cat who will ruin the carpets by toileting on them.

I have two children and they must come first.

Argh it sucks. I wish she could speak so I could find out why she’s doing this.

Also I hope your situation improves soon, it must be very stressful for you all let alone your cat who you clearly care for 💐

Op I feel for you sounds like you are going through a tough time. Try the extra litter tray and try to find a space just for your cat. A cubby hole if you can Maybe keep her out of the bedrooms if you know she is likely to poop? Some cats are like clockwork in their pooping routine.
