How do i win my battle?
my cat is about 16 months old. she is a pain in the ****. she still to this day pisses on my jeans if she considers her litter too dirty, and to be honest, she's very very picky. what do i do other than wear smelly piss jeans? - beside twatting her?
Answers:
JUST MAKE SURE THE LITTER TRAY IS ALWAYS CLEAN
Get rid of cat
Buy pet repellent. Make her an outside cat
I would opt for the latter!
piss on the cat..then a good punch in the face should do..
keep her litter box clean , have you tried fresh step
cat litter ?
also keep your jeans wear your cat can't get to them
good luck
if you don't like it anymore, then why don't you donate it.
i would take the cat out back and shoot it. problem solved.
if she pisses on you put her outside until tommorrow raining or not. [unless its snowing]

you should just be calm with the cat.or try to train it so it will not be a pain in the butt and piss in yo jeans
Clean her tray every day not just when the smell makes you gag
change her litter box more often?
Keep her box cleaner. Put your jeans somewhere that she can't get to them. I have a picky cat too. I have to clean the box 2x a day to keep her happy, and I can't change the type of litter I use either.
I had a similar problem with my cat. Then I began to change the litter box everyday, and it still continued. Then, I took him to the Vet., and he had a serious bladder infection. This your kitty's way of telling you that something might be wrong. Please take your kitty to the Vet., and don't be angry with the animal.
Hang your clothes up and keep the litter box clean. I have one that claws everything. I have to make sure things like toilet paper are not left out before he gets into them.
don't put your jeans on the floor keep them in a closet where the cat cant go
and if yousee it happening spray the cat with water
well if cats are anything like dogs lol, i'd say punishment never helps as this will make her secretive in peeing, Watchout boxer draw hehe. Some ways in which i think you could solve it are as follows... (p.s be quick the older she gets the more difficult to stump out habbits)
* if she does it when ur there, get a bottle fill it will small stones/pebbles, or get soem mini clangers, when she goes to pee rattle them, she might start to associate the peeing in a bad place with a bad noise.
* plenty of praise when she uses her try and keep it clean
*give her less water, shes only got a small bladder the more u fill it the more she emptys it, if your going out it sometimes an idea to use icecubes instead so its slow releasing.
*pet behaviour spray is an option usually doesnt work too long
*pets are usually only pickey if u spoil them too much or let them get away with it too long
*tidy ur room so she cant get ur pants lol
hope it helps anyway, have fun with pet :)
Keep the litter box fresh and clean. They don't like stepping in their own stuff.
I must have her sister because my kitty will pee in the laundry pile if her litter is too dirty! The only thing I have been able to do is change to a scoopable litter and scoop it at least once a day. Sometimes I do it morning and night! It's worth it to avoid the smelly laundry! And she really appreciates it. After all, it is her toilet and she can't flush it.
I have to cats, both about four years now. From when they were kittens until they were about 2 they would scratch and rip curtains, and do things that normal cats do. including pee on the floor and jump up on the counters. What I did was filled a spray bottle full of water and sprayed it at my cats whenever they did something wrong, eventually they learned that what they were doing wasn't right, so they stopped. I've tried many different ways to get my cats to stop doing things, and this was the best. Hope this helps :)
basically you answered your own question. She thinks her litter is too dirty, so she goes else where. The litter obviously needs changing more regularly or try using a more absorbent litter. You wouldn't go to a dirty loo, why should she?
ok what ia would do is buy the cat litter box that cleans it's self it amazing and keep your jeans up in you dresser jours or in a basket where she can not get in it and to get rid of the smell wash your clothes in apple cider viniger add 1/4 cup along with your normal laundry soap and start the washer and voila!! The smell is gone!!
How often are you cleaning her litter box? If it's once a day, I would recommend trying twice a day. I have 2 cats and I clean the box 2 times a day to make sure no one gets fussy and leaves me a surprise while I'm at work.
Also, do you only have 1 litterbox? Maybe it's time to think of adding another one so when one is dirty, she can use the clean one. It's said that you should have +1 litterbox for every cat you have. So if you followed that, you should have 2 litterboxes for 1 cat. Maybe that's what she would prefer to keep it up to her standards. =)
But you should call your vet and see if they have any suggestions. I had a cat that one day started leaving little presents right next to the outside of his litterbox. I couldn't figure out why because I had never had an accident with him. I called the vet and they suggested I bring him in. When they checked him out, it turns out he had problems with his bladder. So maybe she is trying to tell you something by using your jeans.
When you washed your jeans, did you only use regular detergent? That's not enough to kill the smell on your jeans. Your cat is probably smelling it on your jeans and thinks that it's "ok" to urinate there because she has before. Try washing your jeans with white vinegar in a cycle and it should get rid of the smell in your jeans.
If that doens't work, keep your jeans out of her reach. Put them in a room off limits to the her, your dresser, or in a closet (because as I'm sure you know, kitties can get into practically ANYTHING! =P)
Good luck!
Have more than one litter box, maybe she will find the 2nd one to be cleaner than the first option.
You could start by changing the litter more often.. also as soon as she has done a poo remove it from the litter tray and flush done the loo !!
Cats hate dirty litter tray's and will look else where to do their business if their litter is too dirty
I have 3 kitty's I clean their litter trays twice a week, I remove all litter and give the trays a good wash & scrub using washing up liquid, and replace with fresh litter..However, I remove all poo as soon as they have done it or as soon as I see it, also I use litter that forms into clumps once they have peed, this also gets removed.
Nothing smell's worst then having a dirty litter tray full of cat wee & poo laying around the home ..
You could also try hanging your jeans/clothes up when you take them off !!
Best way to prevent this is to provide more than one litter. a few dotted round the flat will give her plenty of options to do it in the right places. If it still continues. Then you have a problem that she is choosing to do it there but I know how hard it is to be there and clean the litter as soon as she uses it so Give her the option of a few more clean litters to go in before getting angree she wont use the litter more than once. If she is doing it to get back at you for not cleaning the litter and some really do do that. This should give her a little more option to use a fresh litter for each time. Even if you have to put one right next to the other. Hope this helps. Michelle in Northamptonshire.
put her litter tray on the window ledge
Like everybody here said, keep the litter clean but also try different types of litter. Cats can be very peculiar with that. I tried some good eco friendly litter with my cat but she only did in the clay litter.. Now she uses the garden!
