WHY IS MY CAT PEEING IN THE HOUSE?
Now she associates that with the box itself and avoids it at all costs. This is another reason why testing different types of boxes and locations can be helpful. If she associates the litter box with something negative, a change of scenery can help break that association.
Thoroughly Clean Old Litter
Accidents
Another key element to reducing spraying incidents in your home is to
clean any old accidents thoroughly. If your cat peed on the carpet and it wasn't completely cleaned, he'll be drawn back to the smell over and over. If you're renting a home and the people before you had cats,
even the smell from those cats' old accidents might lead your cat to want to mark on top of the old scent.
Make sure you use a cleaner specially designed for cat pee. An enzyme-based cleaner is best because it helps break down the uric acid in cat pee that smells so strong and entices your cat to come back over and over again.2
