The cat is dirtyPossible causes: sexually mature cats marking it's territory, infections intestinal and urinary conduits, the cats toilet is placed on an inadequate zone, for example, in a place of no tranquility or by the cats eating area. Other motives may be: poor amount of gravel on the cats toilet. The gravel used is not of the cats liking: the toilets area is too small, the toilet is cleaned irregularly or shells of disinfectant, changes have taken place in the cats life as, for example, moving to a new home, sudden prohibition to enter determine places in the house. The entering to the cats territory by new comers (another cat, a dog, a baby...) or the tension produced by some cats or the quarreling between two persons can change sensibly the physic equilibrium of the cat.Remedy: the activity of marking his territory by spraying urine everywhere can be solved by castration. if its a pathological disorder, only the veterinary can cure him. The origin of an unknown dirtiness asks for a great intuition: In first place, the cats toilet must be as attractive as possible. Fill it with gravel that the cat accepts up to an approximate height of 10 centimeters and change gravel every day (in case of some cats, several times a day). Some cats prefer big tubs as toilet and no roof, most of them accept cavity form toilets. If, anyway there is no results and the cat keeps on using one or several places inside the house to depose of his excrement, try the following: put a toilet on all his favorite places and they to make him accustom to their use, Change the floor tiles or put his eating receptacle on the dirty places. normally, cats don't do their necessities near their food. Also, there exists the possibility of the negative conditioning to keep away the cat from the places where he does nasty things. Surprise your cat in action and spray his nose with deodorant. he won't like that. then sprays all the places from where you want to keep away the cat from. Some cats prefer different backgrounds to do their necessities, as for example, papers, just washed laundry, rugs or plastic bags. there also exists the possibility to put this elements on the toilet and substitute them progressively with gravel. If you fail on all of your intents, all you have left is to make him get used to doing his necessities outside or too take him out of the city to a country house. |
