Question:

My cat keeps urinating on the sofa?

My cat keeps urinating on my sofa and he has never done this before. He used to use his litter box all the time, but now he just goes on my sofa. We re arranged the room his litter box was in, could that be why he is going somewhere else now? I go to school now, and I am gone for a long time, so could he be going on the sofa because he is lonely?

Answer:

my cat does the same except she likes piss behind the tv. anyways you should take her to the vet it mite just be a bladder infection it will get better in a few days or weeks. GOOD LUCK (:
The first thing to do is get him to the vet to rule out a urinary tract infection and other diseases. They can also talk to you about strategies to keep him using the box if it turns out to be behavioral.
Most likely a UTI or bladder infection. Had the same problem when we moved, the cat started peeing everywhere and I though it was from the move, turned out she had a bladder infection. Take her to the vet, she will be fine in a week or so...
There are a host of reasons why your cat is not using the litter box: Medical reasons (ie urinary tract infection, diabetes, kidney problems etc) - so do take your cat to a vet and exclude these first. Then the obvious: dirty litter box, new litter, fragranced litter (any change here could make your cat unhappy) new cat in the house a strange cat getting into your house and using the litter (your cat will not use it then) You also need to clean the sofa ASAP - either with vinegar and water or a special anti-pet furniture shampoo. If you do not get rid of the smell - cat will return to this place to do their business. Oh... DO NOT RUB your cats nose in it.....that just causes more problems of a different kind!
