The cat likes the floor better?

My cat, Mittens, (about 7 years old, though we really don't know exactly old it is) won't go in either of the catboxes (ones in the garage and ones in the laundry room). It's a tabby cat, by the way. It seems to want to go on the floor that is right at the bottom of the stairs instead.

My family says that if he keeps it up, he's going and I don't want my cat to go. I've tried retraining it to go in the catbox but so far it hasn't worked. He has had a problem with this before, when he was going infront of the fireplace. I have two other cats (Jenna and Lusifur). We've had Lusifur for just about as long this cat and Jenna is my new one that I adopted from a pound.

We also are housing two other cats, Dora and Spartakis (the name is odd, I know and yes, that is how you spell it) who are my sisters. So overall, we have five cats and one dog. Do you think that might be why it doesn't like the catboxes?

Mittens tends to stay in the litterbox in the laundry room and will stay in their for most of the day.

Any tips on how to fix this problem? I havge run out of ideas, myself... I seriously need some help with this one...
