There may be many reasons: Make sure you keep the litter box clean-cats have sensitive noses and don't like the ammonia smell in the box. Also, keep the cat out of your bedroom. Get a product at the pet store called Nature's Miracle to clean up the odor on your bed. It has enzymes that break down the waste and smell and may keep them from going on your bed again.

AnswerI think usually cats do that as a sign they are stressed or unhappy. Maybe it just wants more attention, or dislikes a new pet. Keeping it out of your bedroom is the quickest solution. AnswerI had this problem with one of my cats a while back. We thought she was just angry at us, because it was right on the bed and nowhere near the cat box. She did this for over a month, so I took her to the vet thinking that something could be wrong. It turned out she has urinary tract disease, which basically means she is very susceptible to getting urinary infections. Since then we have been feeding her Purina's cat food designed for this problem and she's been great ever since then. Hope this helps...

Sometimes it can be a territorial thing. My kitten did it when we first got her, after about two weeks she stopped. I couldn't shut her out of the bedroom because she cried and scratched at the door. if this is happening, they just have an affection with you and want to mark it as theirs.

Your cat could be dehydrated, if you feed her dry food try switching to something that has more water in it.

The cause can be medical or behavioral. To determine whether there's a medical cause, see your Vet. If the Vet finds no medical cause, you can begin to investigate behavioral causes.

Answer

Probably the cat is angry at you for some reason. Perhaps it needs more attention, or you went on vacation. Who knows? Anyways, close off the room and try to give the cat more kind attention; keep its litterbox clean and see if there is something else happening.

Spraying is a natural and instictive behaviour for cats, so disciplining it for this is self defeating.

HAving the cat fixed usually solves all spraying problems.

Your cat bite cat bed?

That means that you cat smells something on the cat bed that he/she doesn't like. Probably someone before you at the store touched it or maybe it was a harmless bug crawled across it. Its no big deal. I would try washing it with something scented that your cat trusts like your own detergent.


What can you do about a roommate's un-neutered cat's behavior?

An unspayed cat will display many troubling behaviours. The cat should be neutered, for the cat's and your sake. Assuming the behavior you are asking about is SPRAYING. A discussion with your room mate on getting this male neutered should be in order. Un-Neutered Male cats will alway's Spray. They are marking their territory. The smell is absolutly over whelming and needless to say if it's spraying in your home, is almost impossible to get out of anything. Encourage your roomate to have the cat neutered. This procedure is simple, safe and inexpensive ( If you go to the Humane Society or the SPCA ). A neutered cat is also a healthier cat.


Will fixing your cat stop it from peeing in the house?

No, not necessarily, it is called spraying and it is usually caused by stress. the best way to stop your cat from spraying is to reduce stress. The stress could be related to moving, a new baby or a new cat or other animal. Your cat wont spray forever as long as you try to help it feel less stressed out.

Can you get a cat to stop spraying after he starts?

noAnother AnswerThe best thing to do is to neuter him. This may not completely stop him spraying, but after six to eight weeks after castration a cat's hormones will have diminished greatly. It is possible for a neutered cat to stop spraying in the house, as the need to advertise for a female is no longer there. A male cat still may spray for territorial reasons, but is more likely to do this outside.It is also ideal to train the cat (after neutering) not to spray.
