Why Are My Cats Peeing In/On...?

Hidden Meaning In Your Cat's Pee

Cats are very sneaky, smart and creatures of instincts. Unlike dogs, cats usually have a reason for peeing in certain areas of the house. Of course the cat could just decide to pee somewhere for no reason at all, but most cats have a hidden meaning in their peeing habits. Read into your cat's pee and find out what your little princess (or prince) is really telling you.

"Did My Cat Pee On My Drapes ?!" 

There are several reasons for your cat peeing/spraying on your drapes. The first reason Mr. Martin, Inventor and Owner of PetPeePee System, has found is that the cat will typically pee on the drapes that is directly behind a sofa or couch where a certain someone is sitting. This may sound bizarre and unusual, however, if there is someone in your house that doesn't care too much for your cat, the cat knows it. Therefore, the cat will pee in the area where that person sits. Mr. Martin has been to many homes where this is the case. Same for furniture. If you find your cat peeing in one specific area on the sofa this is probably the reason; whether it be someone new to the house that visits frequently, or someone living in the house that doesn't like the cat and vice verse.

Also, if you notice your cat has started, or has been peeing on the window sill, their may be something provoking your cat to pee that you haven't noticed before. In this case, their may be a stray cat coming near the same window, but from the outside. When the stray cat comes and pees near/on the window, your cat smells it and tries to mark his/her territory by peeing also. Your cat is simply staking its claim on the house and, unfortunately, leaving your window sill full of peepee.

"My Cat Never Pees Out of The Litter Box, Why is she peeing now?!"

If your cat is a loyal litter box peer and suddenly he/she starts peeing in another area in the house the cat may be telling you that he/she doesn't feel well. They may have a stomach ache or another kind of pain, and the only way they know to get your attention is to pee. If cats could talk they would probably tell us they don't feel well, and probably some other things we may not want to know, however this is not possible. Therefore the hidden meaning in this pee may be that they are sick, and they may need your help.
 

Another reason your cat may suddenly start peeing in an area not permissable by you is they feel neglected. If you have a new visitor, new pets, baby, husband, wife, pregnancy, or new factors in life (such as moving) that affect your attention to your cat they may become jealous and start demanding your attention by peeing. Cats are like humans in this sense and do not want to be neglected, now, you may say that cats are independent and don't need human interaction all the time. Yes, cats are independent and they don't need your attention ALL the time, but they certainly need your attention on a daily basis. Your cat is like family and they expect to be treated as so.

"I bring my cat with me everywhere in my Louis Vuitton Bag and now she's peeing in it!" 

If you've ever tried to hold your cat for more than 20 minutes you tend to find that your cat wants to get as far away as possible. You may beg, plead with your cat to make them stay in your arms but it never works. Some cats love this and you're blessed if your cat does, however most can't be in the same place for more than a certain amount of time. So, if you try and keep  your cat in your Louis Vuiton bag  for longer than that amount of time your cat will pee, which is saying, "Hey! GET ME OUT OF HERE!"
Note: PetPeePee System cleans all types of materials and has even cleaned this Louis Vuitton bag belonging to a loyal customer.

The most common reasons for cats peeing: something's wrong with the litter box.

•  First and foremost, if you have two cats, you need two litter boxes, if you 10 cats you need 10 litter boxes. Cats DO NOT like to share (in most cases).


• Also, when cats use the litter box they demand privacy just like humans. So, putting a litter box near a door, or in an open hallway is unacceptable!  Have you ever noticed that if you look at your cat while they're doing their business they look at you like, "What the heck are you looking at?" This is because they want their privacy. Therefore, putting your cat's litter box in a secluded corner or enclosed area is most preferred.


• Cats are very instinctive and territorial. Still having their primal instincts they prefer to pee in an area where they have, or another cat has peed. So, when you go to clean your cat's litter box, always leave some of the old litter in the box so they're reminded that it's their's, plus they feel more comfortable.  Also, try avoid using a plastic bag underneath the litter, leaving a good portion of the old litter is better than removing all of it.


• Along with having a nice location for litter boxes, enough for each cat and privacy, another tip to avoid your cat peeing NEAR the litter box is to put down an old towel underneath the box. When cats leave the litter box after they pee, their paws have litter and pee on them. Once they start walking on the carpet or tile the odor will transfer to those areas. Therefore, they smell their pee near the litter box and think its O.K. to pee there.


• Some people are cat and dog lovers. More often than not the cat and dog actually get along or the dog just loves to play fight with the cat.  In one case that Mr. Martin noticed in one of his customer's home is that the cat's litter box was located right next to the dog crate! So, sometimes when the cat went to pee, the dog would bark, get excited and scare the cat away. So, instead of getting scared away by barks she would rather pee in a more tranquil location, the sofa.

 

"I just bought this couch, why is she peeing on it?!"

If you just bought a new piece of furniture and your cat is drawn to it like light from a UFO their is probably another smell that the cat does not like and feels it must pee to make sure their smell is the only one. If you buy furniture that was located on the display floor, people have sat on it before. Those people may own cats and transfer the smell to your new furniture. You probably don't smell this but your cat does and, therefore, will pee on it to claim its territory. Therefore, try avoid buying furniture from the display floor, or have it cleaned before placing it in your home.
Note: If you have bought your couch, loveseat or other furniture items from the display floor PetPeePee System Guarantees to Remove the Urine Odor so your cat may not be provocked to pee on it.
