So both the cats are neutered and in good health. I have litter boxes everywhere for the rabbits. I use the horse bedding pine pellets from Tractor supply. The cats have left them alone up until about a month ago. They do their business in the rabbit boxes and I find that so not cool. They refused to go in theirs which i keep very clean. We've been using the corn litter for years now. I bought a new box and laid down fresh litter and hid the rabbit boxes from them. My old cat (10 years) decided to pee in dirty laundry piles, on any of my gear I leave out, my backpack any where but his litter box.
So my next step was to put rabbit litter in their box since they both seemed to like it. Voila old cat is now using litter box. Young cat doesn't care and will use it.
Now within the last week old cat is back to using whatever isn't the litter box for his peeing pleasures. He's been to the vet and is just fine. This is a cat who for ten years has used his litter box no matter how small, large, dirty, etc. If he was accidently locked out from his litter box he would go in the sink or the bath tub. NEVER anywhere he wasn't supposed too. I know it's him because I've caught him at it several times.
Any ideas? He's driving my hubby bonkers. I just kind of clean up after him. I've had him longer than anything else in this house to include the hubster. Which also drives hubby bonkers.
