My Bengal girl (3 y.o) has been superb in peeing in her litter box (as long as it's clean) until this year. We have to keep all bedroom dors closed as she pulls up vents in our ducted heating so now..... she is banned from these rooms and as a result ... likes to pee against these doors. We almost view it as "a protest". Would love to knows if other Bengal owners have experienced such a level of "belligerence" and how they've addressed it. Very frustrating!!! Diva behaviour!

Hey I have a 2 yr old female seal lynx point bengal who has been peeing on our carpet in 3 main spots and sometimes on our bed. We are not sure why she had been doing this, we were told by her breeder to confine her in a bathroom for a couple days with her litter box and food as well with some toys, but once she came out she would do well for a couple days and then all of sudden started peeing again. She has two litter boxes now that are always clean, we keep food on the spots where she has peed on the carpet but yet she still pees.
We don't want to feel stressed about this, but it's such a Hassel to deal with all the time. Help please, what are we doing wrong?

In reply to Allyssia. Instead of litter boxes, buy 66 qt translucent storage boxes. They are about 12 inches high. Buy a few of them, place them in different locations throughout your home.

I have a different type of "problem", my Bengal cat is the best--she pees and poops in her litter box like an amazingly good girl, never once had a problem with her pooping or peeing anywhere else--but as she's peeing in her litter box, she'll raise her butt up and pee outside the box. EVERY TIME. It never fails. And if we put the lid on the box she feels enclosed and will step in her business and gets it everywhere. Ick. I mean we so would NOT get rid of her for that lol, we just want to know what we can do to make that stop. Maybe we just need to find a better/bigger litter box? Does anyone know of any that might work? Thanks! :)

In reply to Kate. There are many reasons for cats not to use their litter boxes. I am adding a menu item to my site that will include infographics. The first one is focused on litter box issues. It might give you some answers. (should be available within a couple of days. If it isn't e-mail me and I will send it to you)

Two and a half days ago, I bought an 11 wk old Bengal SBT (ancestry tree all SBT for over 7 generations). He didn't eliminate for over 24 hrs and then went next to the litter box - but not in it. Then he urinated last night ON the guest bed where he is sequestered instead of IN the litter box. I bought the 'worlds best litter' corn litter to use in the box because that is what the breeder said he was used to. The breeder also said 'this kitten never makes any litter box mistakes.' (Was he lying in order to sell him?) the litter box is obviously clean as he hasn't used it. The litter is familiar to him. I'm going out today to buy a plastic box instead if the disposable one. But I'm thinking about having buyers remorse and taking him back. I cannot have a cat that has this problem!
