My kitten did this, but I just chalked it up to the fact that she was a baby. My sister's adult cat did this, and the vet said it was a dominance thing because she had another cat. Buy a pet stain cleaner and spray your mattress down well. Wash your bed clothes in hot water and soap. Clean the litter box often. Don't let her in your bedroom for awhile. Put her by her litterbox a few times a day just so she knows where it is. Good luck! (Take her to the vet to make sure she does not have a bladder infection).

Cats will always use a clean litter box. Do you keep the box clean and use a good quality litter? You need several inches of litter in the box so that she can dig and cover. Apart from a dirty box, which a cat will refuse to use, another reason for peeing outside the box is that they might have a bladder or kidney infection. They do try to communicate. She is probably trying to tell you something. By the way...is she spayed?

Please don't just put her out. If you don't want her or the work and expense that goes with having her, then take her to your local shelter where she can find a forever home.

My cat was peeing all over due to new pets in the house. We took him to the vet first to be sure he didn't have some sort of infection (all clear), and knowing that he would be put down if taken to the shelter (who wants a peeing cat?), we decided to do major reconditioning.

He is on a leash within our sight at all times. He is in a carrier at night. We take him to the litter box several times a day. If he pees, he gets treats and about 10 minutes of freedom. If he pees and poops, he gets treats and around 20 minutes of freedom. Gradually, we are increasing the time in the hopes that by the time we're done, he's going to be reconditioned to go potty in only one spot.

The other thing that may help you is getting another litter box. It is recommended to have one litter box more than you have cats... and it's a really good suggestion. Just be sure the spot you pick is one that your cat can get to and that you're going to be comfortable with... you don't want to move it once the cat starts using it.

Get a good cleaner for your bed and mattress (Nature's Miracle) that uses enzymes, make your room (or bed) off limits to the cat. Be patient above all. In this culture of ours, we're used to instant results... you're dealing with a creature that isn't human and doesn't understand your need to nip this in the bud immediately.

Good luck!

Do not kick the cat out of the house. Take her to the vet, she more than likely has a urinary infection. Cats usually only pee out of their litter box for a few reasons, most of the time they have an infection. She is trying to tell you that she is not feeling good by peeing on your bed. The vet will do a urine analysis on her and if she does have an infection they will put her on an antibiotic and possibly some special food. Please do not throw her out of the house for something she has no control over.

Just put the litter box near your bed, cats usually will do their things by themselves. And no, don't kick your cat out of the house, that's mean and cruel, as well as abandonment, which is a crime. You can't expect a cat to just do everything you want it to do without teaching it, just like children don't know anything about nuclear physics, you have to teach them, same for the cat.

make sure she always has access to her litterbox. do not shut her in any room for any cause with out her litter box being in their. if you dont want her to go to the bathroom in your bed there are a few couple fixes to this problem. Natures miracle, gets rid of the stain, odor, and ammonia in the pee, and then there is Feliway which tells the cat "i dont go here anymore" you'll have to spray it more than once possibly over a course of 1-2 months (its kinda like having a kid, you have to tell them to clean their room more than once) it has cat pheramones in it which is a way of telling them they dont go there anymore, it also stops them from spraying in that place. give it a try. if you have anymore questions about products for your kitty feel free to email me. i work in a pet store so i know all about the products sold there.

Whoa hold up for a sec you can't just do that your cat deserves better than that, like someone said restrict the cat from your room, it's an animal they're going to do stuff like that.

Maybe she is sick or afraid or hasn't been litter box trained.

If you don't want her, give her to a no kill shelter Please! Don't be abusive and let her starve or get hit by a car. She is just an animal needing a good home. I understand ..no one wants that to happen on their bed or house.

Try keeping her in a small room with her litter box awhile if you want to give her another chance and keep your bedroom door shut so she won't be drawn back to that smell and spot.

3 yrs ago my cat peed in my bed too. It happened a few times. I took him to the vet & they diagnosed him with diabetes & feline aids. he used to be an outside cat but when we moved to an apt we wanted to keep him outside. Sadly enough the same day i took him to the vet he had to be put to sleep. Im not saying your situation is this bad, but usually cats do weird things like this when they are trying to tell you something. I would take it to the vet. goodluck!

sudden non use of the cat box by a cat that always used it before indicates a cat with a problem, either something in the household has changed, marriage, divorce, fighting etc or the cat is sick and trying to tell you
