I scrolled through the asked questions or topics, couldn't find anything close to my question.:confused:

Does he do this on certain furniture, fabric, in a certain place? Have you changed the litter brand lately or added something to the litter to make it smell better? Have you changed the cat's food? Does he urinate frequently? Does he drink a lot of water? If so, he probably needs to visit the vet to check out a UTI (urinary tract infection) or diabetes.

The appropriate topic area to post this in would be Home & Garden >> Pets & Animals and then Cats. You can see Home & Garden and then Pets & Animals on the home page of this site. https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/ I have requested that it be moved to that area.

How old is your cat? Is your cat spayed/neutered could it be marking? Are you keeping the litter box as clean as the cat would like it.scoop daily,wash weekly with detergent not amonia based and follow up with a vinegar rinse 1 cup of vinegar per gallon of water and let dry.. try providing 2 different litter boxes or even one that scoops automatically if that is affordable. If being particular over his box is the problem.

A suggestion would be to take a trip to your local pet store.. they have certain sprays, one that I have in mind is called "piss off". What you do is spray it on your furniature, on the floor wherever the cat seems to like to urinate the most and it supposedly stops them from doing this. I haven't personally needed to use it but I have heard that it does work. Your local vet or local pet shop should have some other suggestions for you if you are still having problems. Even the RSPCA (RSPCA Australia) has some similar products that may help prevent this problem from reoccuring. Hope I helped!

You're going to have to solve the problem rather than spray something where he has urinated. He will only find a "better" place the next time.

Check all the things bushg mentioned. With my cats, the litter box has been key--either that it isn't as clean as they like or that we changed the litter and they don't like the new stuff.

Get new furniture or get rid of the cat.

I had the same problem with my cat a while ago, and honestly, there's really not much you can do. The sprays that you can buy at the pet store work for a while, but she just found different places to "go." With my cat, the solution was simple, she wanted to go outside and was mad at me for making her an inside cat! A friend of mine who lives out in the country took her and she is a happy, well-adjusted outdoor cat now. This could be your cat's problem. Sorry to not be the bearer of happier news! Hope you can find your cat's solution.

Just a few suggestions - one is make sure that you change the litter box frequently to make sure it is always clean. This includes washing the box with soap and water and then putting fresh litter every day. Make sure that your cat receives his regular vet visits and shots. If your cat is not fixed, consider having this done. Also, if your cat is on regular cat food and he is a male, he could be getting "salt crystals" in his bladder - a build-up of salt that causes a painful obstruction so he can't urinate. The urination on your stuff may be his way of letting you know he is not feeling well.

Also, make sure that your cat has enough to do at home, that could mean he needs to go outside for a time to smell the roses, and sit in the sun. If you keep him inside the house all the time, he could be bored and urinating on your stuff to get your attention he is not happy. Take care.

Figure out which you like better, the cat or the furniture, and get rid of the other... sounds logical to me... lol
