Perhaps you have an older cat, who’s been a part of your family for a number of years, and one that begins to exhibit bad cat behavior out of nowhere. Or maybe you just adopted a new one that is new to your household and to you. Either way, you suddenly encounter cat behavior problems like urination throughout your house, or the outright refusal to use the litter box at all, biting, and displays of aggression toward you or a family member, or an incessant yowling or other vocalization that won’t stop. While these cat problems can be frustrating to owners, they are not insurmountable, if a little care is taken.
If you happen to find that you’re experiencing some new problems with your animal, be prepared to discuss with your veterinarian or read up in a cat guide any changes you can think of that can upset your pet’s routine. The answers to these questions, as well as other methods will better help the experts assess the type of therapy necessary for your cat, be it through medicine or behavior modification to end the cat problems you may face.
If the cats behavior has changed very suddenly, most experts agree that the very first thing you need to do is take your cat in for a thorough health checkup. Quite a few “bad cat behaviors” actually have their root in some kind of organic disease process. Blood tests and a thorough physical will ensure that there are no underlying problems like a bladder infection, kidney infection, or blocked urethra, which can lead to urination accidents outside the litter box, or other physical malady that could change the personality and behavior of an otherwise good cat. For example, cracked bones or sore spots, or even skin disorders could cause cat biting or other aggressive behavior if an owner accidentally hits a tender spot that causes the animal physical pain. Once you are sure that there is no physical cause for bad cat behavior, you can go on to try to pinpoint the source of what is going on with your cat in other arenas.
Some cat behavior problems, like cat urination can be handled physically by neutering or spaying your animal. Males will spray to mark territory, especially if there is another male in what they consider to be “their space”. Females will often urinate on things, especially around the time they go into heat to announce their fertility to any available males. By surgically neutering a cat, this behavior can often be eradicated because it takes away the cyclical need to advertise the availability for mating. Spaying a female will also stop the vocalizations that accompany going into heat.
Other cat urination problems can be psychological ones, a way for the cat to act out if it is unhappy with something in the environment. Some factors include the move to a new location, the litter box not being private enough or cleaned often enough to suit the animal, or a change like the addition or loss of a person or animal in the cat’s surroundings. Sometimes the solution can be as simple as changing the litter box more frequently, or possibly adding a second one in the instance where there are multiple cats. Even changing the litter brand can cause some problems if the cat finds the feeling of the new litter unacceptable on its paws.
