My cat keeps peeing on everything?

Ya he’s fixed and he’s a indoors cat he’s never been outside he’s scared to go outside haha

Wow I’m at a loss as to what it could be

same here haha hopefully he stops cause i dont wanna have to get rid of him, but thanks anyways.

One of the most common causes for a neutered, trained cat to start peeing outside of the litter box is a urinary tract infection. You may want to get him into the vet as soon as possible to rule this out, as UTI’s in cats are often fatal.

That aside, any little change in his normal routine can cause him to act out. Have you rearranged the furniture? Changed his cat food? Altered your own schedule in any way? Changes that may be subtle to you can be devastating to him.

One thing you need to do is use an enzyme cleaner to remove the scent of his urine from all the places he has peed, or he won’t stop doing it. His sense of smell is a lot more delicate than ours and he can smell his urine even if you’ve scrubbed the area clean several times. An enzyme cleaner will break down that odour.

Consider getting a second litter box. Cats are fickle creatures and, out of the blue, decide that they don’t want to pee where they poop … having two litter boxes may alleviate the problem.

Where is his food in relation to the litter boxes? Just like people, cats don’t want to void where they eat … make sure the food and litter are a good distance away from each other.

You may need to re-train him, but rubbing his nose in it is not the correct way - he’s a cat, not a dog, and you can’t use the same tactics. If you see him peeing on something, immediately grab him and set him in his litter box. If you must, quarantine him in one room until you’ve cleaned the urine traces from the rest of the house.

If all else fails, talk to your vet about the situation and he may be able to offer you some resources. Cats don’t do this to be purposely annoying - he is trying to tell you something is wrong.

Thank you that helps alot I will tell my dad today n see what we can do
