QUESTION

I have two cats, one male Persian and one female with short black hair that I adopted when she was pregnant. They both get on great together and both use the litter trays provided usually without problems. The only problem I have is that the female occasionally goes in the tray but misses and urinates on the floor. I have seen her do this and there is plenty of space around her for her to position herself in the tray without missing. She has never soiled anywhere else in the house. Any tips?

ANSWER

Dear Debbie,
This is a quite common problem that is usually solved by getting a large covered litter tray. If you get one with a swinging front flap she will have to go inside to use the tray this will also give her privacy from the other cat and family which may may her more relaxed and take more time.
