Hello, I am new to the forums and I am in desperate need of help. My Kitty Chessie is a female tricolor (maybe you can call her a torby) and has had constant peeing problem basically since the time she became an adult (she is 5 years old). She loves to pee on bathroom rugs, I have found it in the corner of our house entrance, and her favorite spot, on my clothes! Just the other day she crept inside of my PACKED BAG (ready to go on a trip) and destroyed all the paperwork and soiled all the clothing I had in there. She also poops daily outside of the litter box or in my boyfriend's closet. 5 years of this is driving me NUTS. I have done everything known: I have an older cat that occasionally harasses her so I made places for her to hide (she had this behavior before we got our older cat so he is not the cause of her behavior), I have used feliway plug in and spray, I have given her more attention, less attention, I have sprayed her when she does the behavior, rubbed her face in it, I have even gone as far as bathing her every time she repeats this behavior. I have NO IDEA WHAT TO DO.

To top things off, I think something is (seriously) mentally wrong with her. When she sleeps on the banister she falls off, when I call the cats for food she shows up 5 minutes after the other cats (meaning she hasn't learned food bag shaking= meal), and she gets discouraged easy... You hold her she gets mad; you pet her she gets mad. It's only when she gives you permission that she will be nice... And in those periods of being nice art short lived. She will very suddenly get VERY angry and start to growl/bite/scratch.


She was a indoor kitty when I got her, then I moved her outside because of her peeing issues, then I moved her back inside because I live in the city now.
