Why are Cats Peeing on Bed?
This is usually a big problem with cats. Some people are even giving up from their cats because of this problem. Why are cats peeing on unwanted places? There can be several reasons for this. It can be behavioral or medical. Why medical? The cats are different than humans. You can ask people who own cats before. How they lost their cats? You can hear many times the answer is kidney failure. The reason is cats can not produce vitamin B. They get it from fresh meats but in modern days people give them dry foods. You can see them still hunting while they already ate their food. It is not only because of hunting instinct. So what i try to say is peeing problem is not only because of behavior. It can indicates a medical problem too such as kidney stones, bladder infections even cancer.
Medical Reasons
Often it is a behavioral problem why cats peeing on bed but it can be medical problem too. What are they and how you can be sure your cat is ok? You should go to doctor of course but you can do something by yourself too. I suggest you to give your cats time to time fresh meat not a wet food but real fresh meat. It may not be only because fresh meat but long term starving if you found them on street or if they living in apartments they sometimes not peeing and holding it long time. But you have to check it on vet clinics because illness can be very severe level already and need intervention. The medical problems can be urinary tract infection, stones, cancers, hyperthyroidism, even orthopedic problems etc...
Behavioral Reasons
Cats are not like dogs. Dogs are social animals like wolves but cats usually very individual creatures. But they are still your friends. It can be many reason why they do it. It can be a dirty litter box or full one. Or other dominant cat sharing same litter box. Or place of litter box or shape of it. They also peeing for marking too. Or they try to hide their poo and pee too. It can cause them not to be safe to pee on places other than their lovely owners smell safe and soft beds. Or they may taken from their mother to early and not trained. Because their mother train them it said. Or if you have new cats or dogs to your home it can make them feel unsafe too.
How to prevent Cats to pee on bed?
Is it possible to fix this problem? Well yes. There are even some tricks. There are even some pet products like sprays, litters, sticky tapes etc..Or some materials you can use or prevent to use such as vinegar. Cats do not like vinegar smell it said. So it can be helpful. You can drop some vinegar to bed. Or they like smell of sodium hypochlorite which is bleaches has it. You can drop little bit to their litter box bleach. Other than those you should also keep clean their litter box and use different litter box for each cat and do not change often its location. Also do not put their litter box near their food or water.
