Same litter as for years. I changed it once before with immediate negative impact. Switched back and things immediately improved.
Medical was ruled out by vet soon after this started. Poop is "normal" in color and consistency. Diet is varied and good quality. Cat drinks adequately but it would be better if she drank more.
Both cats were rescued. Younger cat was, literally, in the middle of the highway when Wife stopped and picked him up. Brought him home so he would at least be confortable until he died. Damaged spine with no movement in his rear end. He has greatly improved but is not as active as a normal 4 year old cat and still has a bump in his spine.
Older cat is alpha but she is not the domineering alpha she once was.
The boxes are in different locations within the house. Male does not stay near the boxes. I have moved one box in front of the washer now. Will see if that helps!
Diet is still the same. Only event I can remember from the time frame where the potty issues started is our older dog REALLY slowed down. She is no longer the driving force of power she was last year. We got a youngish (turning 4 soon) dog (another Belgian) but that was after the potty issues started. New dog ignores the old cat and plays touch and groom with the younger cat.
We have been trying to figure out what has changed in our lives during the timeframe in question. Cannot settle on anything other than the older dog announcing retirement.
We are showing the farm and it is really an issue to have prospective buyers show up and find kitty poop on the floor. This will all likely change soon if I really do get the transfer promised so long ago and move in a few weeks.
