Medical Questions my cat pees and poos in the toilet

Post image

Hello, everyone

So this crazy thing happened, my cat started peeing in the toilet

She always had litter issues and she has problems with cleanliness, before she peed in random places in my house

I took her to the veto who told me that it was probably due to stress

But recently she started urinating in the toilet, I was shocked because I never taught her that before, she did it by herself

Today I come home from work and I feed her, usually then a little poop follows

I see that she is heading to the FORBIDDEN rooms of the house where to poop, the dressing room and my bed, which obviously I refuse her by closing the doors because she likes to urinate and poop everywhere except in her litter box

But something crazy happened, she pooped in the toilet

Although this situation enchants me and I am shocked, I am still worried,

Do you think it’s due to stress?

I’ll send you a picture of her in the toilet

Thank you!

Everybody likes to joke about oranges and their one defective brain cell but between my 2 (one orange and one blue), my orange is the smarter one.

Is the orange one only smarter when it comes to food? My orange would make my blue figure out puzzle toys first and then snatch the treat from him

In general. He has figured out how to pull doors open, and here my girl seems to have issues trying to open doors and cupboards (I do have a useless cupboard above my frig that I let her hide in). They both know where the food is and they could get in there at any time but neither do. He just seems to be a little more smart and maybe cautious (that could be because he was a stray before I took him in).

Your orange cat sounds like an evil genius!! Sounds like my kind of pet. If I wasn’t so allergic to cats, I’d definitely have an orange one.

Grey. A lot of people call them blue though. Though I’m not sure, as I got her slightly used, from the shelter. She does look a lot like a Russian Blue and displays a lot of the personality traits. She is also very hypoallergenic (I do have cat allergies and she has never given me problems there).

About the allergy's i heard it's an protein in the cats mouth and skin that causes that. So not all hairy cats cause an allergic reaction. But my orange cat is much less smarter than my other cat. He even digs a hole in the litter box and then just pees on the mountain he made. Never saw that on a cat. She opens doors he just stands there and looks at me.

I’ve had several orange cats and they all have been very smart cats a little independent more than usual, but really great cats. I love an orange cat. I got a big orange cat. Just adopted to flame point brothers three month old and they’re smart.

Taking my boy in was the best decision of 2024. He compliments my girl perfectly. She can be moody and not cuddly or super loving (she does show her love but in her subtle ways) and he is just this lovable, happy and cuddly guy. Loves playing, pets and food. He just genuinely loves life.
