Cat urinating in her bed

Home More advice Pets & Animals

I have 3 cats and one of them is very unsociable. We think she may have been abused before we found her with a rope around her neck and tied under a bush. We believe this experience has damaged her. We've had her for 7 years and no matter how we try to accommodate her, she will not stop urinating in her bed or on the floor. She's been to the vet and there is no physical reason for this behavior. She hides in the corner under the nook in our dining room, so we put a bed under there. She peed in it so we took it away. She still peed, so we put a litter box under there. (that made dinner time a tad unpleasant!) We finally acquired 6 beds that we changed and washed once or twice a week when she would pee in them. Now we've removed the beds and the litter box and she just does her business on the bare floor under the table. When she does it, I put her in the litter box, which is in another room, to try to get her to associate with it. What else can I do, short of sending her to a shelter, where she'll just be more traumatized or worse, put to sleep?
