The cat limits the territory, leaving odorous tags on all apartment – on furniture, walls, curtains, in corners and secluded places. It is necessary to disaccustom a cat long – at first it is necessary to find out the reason, then to develop tactics and to realize decisions.
Instruction
1. Provide to a cat comfortable conditions. If the animal spoils on corners because it does not accept a tray, then it is necessary to replace capacity. Usually the tray happens the insufficient size, two containers often are required – cats are very clean. Perhaps, near a tray there was a smell unpleasant to a cat – fresheners, detergents which you clean carpets or furniture, etc.
2. Try "to take away" a cat from corners. You can try to kill persistent smell from cat's tags, having processed surfaces special solutions (they can be got in pet-shops) or make-shifts (vinegar, detergents, mustard, iodine, etc.). Stand in the corners of a box or move furniture, that is make this place inaccessible for a cat. It is possible to put its bowl with food there – cats do not spoil where eat. This method has two shortcomings – the smell can become stronger if the cat continues to spoil, and can just move to other place, having chosen the following corner.
3. Sterilize an animal. Hormonal medicines or surgical sterilization will help to fix physiological problems, and the cat will become quieter. If the cat marks corners, attracting grooms, then this only effective solution.
4. Try to train a cat. You praise an animal every time when it visits a tray. Stand a tray in the corner or lay the newspaper there, gradually move "toilet" further from the place where she spoiled. "Mark" the territory with the dirty things (socks, a sweaty undershirt), having properly rubbed fabric about a surface – the cat has to recognize your domination in the house.
5. Show a cat to the veterinarian. The fact that the cat spoils can be a symptom of a disease of kidneys or a bladder. To exclude pathology, carry out survey and get advice of the expert. Perhaps, you should replace a forage and to treat an animal, then problems will stop.
6. Paste over corners. To fight desire to approach corners off a cat, stick on a floor strips a bilateral adhesive tape. Cats do not like to soil pads, and the extremities pasted to a floor can bring her into panic. Having had a stress, the cat will cease to soil in corners.
