Cat Peeing on Bed/Couches, whatever?

I have a female cat, who's a bit older than a year, I think. She's lived with my mother, myself, and my sister for most of her life, and was fully litterbox trained when we got her from the humane society. She has never had a problem with her litterbox except for one or two accidents when she first arrived at the house. About a two week sago she peed on her cat bed. Over the course of the next two weeks, she's peed on her other cat bed, peed on the couch, my bedding (twice), and my laptop case, which is a soft messenger bag. We have not taken her to the vet to see if she has a UTI, but I'm going to talk to my mother about it tomorrow. Her litterbox and litter have not changed. Her litterbox is right next to her food and drink, and always has been, but this could perhaps be causing it? We had my dad's dog around for a week, last week, about a week after she started doing this, but she's also been around here many times before....

UTI is always the first thing to look for in a situation like this. Peeing inappropriately and letting you know they're doing it is the only way they have to let you know there's a problem. To the vet ASAP!!!!
Reply:Get her checked by the vet you should bring a urine sample even if not asked to this will speed results of any urine problem
Reply:Going where they shouldn't could be a sign of medical trouble.





You should also move the litter box to a better spot with less traffic and show her the new location. They don't like their litter boxes by their food. That could be another reason why she is going everywhere but in the litter box.
Reply:First of all move the cats food and water away from her litter box! GROSS! Is your cat fixed? Did something change in the house? Cats hold resentment and do these kinds of things! My cat is about 3 yrs and did this when I left for a weekend. If your cat is peeing often then you need to get her to a vet. Could be UTI.
Reply:Sounds like a UTI to me...I worked in a vet clinic for about 3 years. Take her to the vet as soon as you can, these can develop into very serious problems if left untreated. Especially if she has bladder stones or crystals, blockage can occur (this happens mostly in males but can occur in females also) and cause death.
