Thanks to all who have replied.
It has not happened for 3 days now and before that it was only happening on occasion. After I posted the question, I then cleaned the floor around the litter box and the "litter catcher mat" where this had been happening with "Nature's Miracle". It has not happened since. Would this a indicate behavioural problem?
We have decided that, if it happens again, we will take the cats to the Vet ASAP.
Is a Uninary Tract Infection contagious? I want to know if both cats will get it if they share the litterbox and will both, therefore, have to be treated? We have no idea which cat it is.
We are super clean about the litterbox - sifting it twice a day, washing it once a week and changing the clumping litter completely every month. I know that would not prevent a UTI but wanted to add it since it may indicate it is a medical problem.
