Hi Marie,

I would almost always recommend a vet check first, But you have already done that. Good for you!

Have there been any changes in the household lately that your cat might find upsetting? I know the cats have new litterboxes, but did you change their location? Are you using the same brand of litter? Cats can be so picky sometimes.

The carpet needs to be cleaned with an enzyme-based cleaner to get the smell out. There are several from which to choose, and I'm sure your local pet store has a variety. I am presently using PetZyme, with good results, but if you want to try an old standby, Nature's Miracle is excellent. The problem could be that the smell has remained so the cat keeps returning to the spot.

Take care, and please let us know if you need more info.

PHKitkat
