its proably because its a boy cat with his testicals. having them removed will help calm him down. other reasons include marking teritorry. you must be disiplined with house training, and cat litter. if you don't want then to pee in a certain place put down lavender. tin foil makes to much noise for cats. so putting it down behind the washing machine or under the bed can stop them

They may not be able to reach properly *for instance if your cat has gained a lot of weight it may not be able to reach so it doesn't*

You cat also may simply have gotten older, and lazy. This happened to my cat at around 9 years old. While he was otherwise perfectly healthy, his interest in grooming and playing stopped and he only wanted to lie down in the sun and be held.

Each cat is an individual and some are more vocal than others. When they meow they are basically communicating with a human. Your cat must be very happy with you if they have stopped meowing. However, if your cat is losing weight, not eating properly or drinking water then please take it into a vets to be on the safe side.

First take them to the vet. If it is a male cat there is a very good chance they can have a condition which causes crystals in the bladder. (my dog had it and its super rare in female dogs) Also I would put them on a urinary track healthy diet. There are special foods both hard and soft for cats with urinary problems. I would definitely seek the advice of a vet though! (If it is crystals they only go away with an antibiotic)

Often it is because they have a urinary tract infection, or blockage (crystals.) This is usually caused by the cat not getting enough fluids, being water or wet food, or even dry food promoting a healthy urine PH. See your vet immediately if you cat stop urinating, a this can be very serious and dangerous.

It could be because of a urine infection, a trip to the vet is probably best just to make sure.

One thing that could cause a female cat to pee involuntarily is if they have some kind of bladder infection. They may also of gotten scared about something.

Generally, it is because she is ill, or her litter box is dirty.

Your cat might have a little infection, make sure it has plenty of fresh water, it might be a good idea to have your kitty checked by your veterinarian to see what is causing this.

How do you get your cat to stop hissing at people?

If your cat is hissing at strangers you can't stop your cat from hissing at them. The only thing I can think of that would stop a cat from hissing at someone is letting a cat get to know a person long enough that the cat isn't afraid of the person, and will therefore get along with him/her.
