I send all my condolences.<BR/><BR/>I have always had two cats at a time, and have had this problem before. <BR/><BR/>Most often this behavior has meant that one or both of the cats have a urinary tract infection. I would get that checked first.<BR/><BR/>I once had one pair of cats where separate boxes was the solution, but even that was a little tricky. One of them would pee in either box, and the other would only go in a box that the first cat NEVER peed in. The first cat was older an no longer could jump well. We ended up putting a second box on an old table in the basement which the older cat could not access. That worked very well, except for the need to retrain the young cat so she learned that there was only table in the universe that cats are allowed to walk upon.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179549759496076329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16232845.post-78962769492022900282008-12-11T05:43:00.000-08:002008-12-11T05:43:00.000-08:00Someone is marking territory so all the suggestion...Someone is marking territory so all the suggestions - close the bedroom door if you can, second catbox and Feliway should help although we had this problem for years and it only ended when our fourth cat died. Hopefully you can solve it though! In our household the least dominant cat has always been the one doing the marking so that may help you sort out who is doing it. One more thing to try is to put something on your bed in particular that the cats won't like to walk on. Hopefully this is temporary. You can spend a lot of money on a "scat mat" - which will give them a mild shock and would discourage them from being on the bed. Simpler might be to buy some hardware cloth or chicken wire to lie on top of the bed. You just want to make it unpleasant for them to be there. We tried using the plastic mats that go under a desk chair turned upside down (lots of little spikes) but that didn't work.<BR/><BR/>Good luck - marking cats are a pain!painting with firehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578014572547587329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16232845.post-90983640259980743262008-12-10T21:20:00.000-08:002008-12-10T21:20:00.000-08:00I know nothing about cats, but getting a second li...I know nothing about cats, but getting a second litter box sounds like it might help.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028558997383919768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16232845.post-13754074490724110982008-12-10T14:43:00.000-08:002008-12-10T14:43:00.000-08:00Two kitties?

Apparently there's some sort of hormone in the product that makes them think they already marked this territory, and don't need to do so again. There's a spot treatment, but also something like a Glade Plug in. LOL It plugs into the outlet and releases the scent in the room. A number of my friends (my mother also) used it and while it didn't 100% cure all the cases, it did DRASTICALLY reduce the number of incidents.Lynda the Guppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14134201930910336468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16232845.post-83540931340259048572008-12-10T10:18:00.000-08:002008-12-10T10:18:00.000-08:00Have you considered getting them each their own bo...Have you considered getting them each their own box?
