Why does a cat wet the bed?

It is not uncommon for cats to wet the bed. I often hear complaints from cat friends that the cat at home peed in XX places again, or peed on the bed. But cat bedwetting is not necessarily a cat problem. Is there something that parents pay enough attention to their cats?
When it comes to cat bedwetting, Xiao Ao’s experience can be said to be very rich. Cats are very smart animals. My Xiao Ao is now five months old. He caught a cold a few days ago due to the change in temperature (see the previous article for details). One day when I was about to pack my things and go to work, Xiao Ao suddenly jumped up at me. On my bed, he wet the bed in front of me. After I cleaned it up, I was very angry and felt a little baffled. I just put him in the living room and went to work. When I came back in the evening, I found that he had started to sneeze and have a runny nose. I realized that it was feeling uncomfortable in the morning and wanted to attract my attention. Therefore, when the cat wets the bed, the first reaction is not to give it a violent beating. You must be patient and understand its physical condition.

Solution: 1. Find a cat to breed with. 2. Sterilization.

Cat owners don’t like the current cat litter

If the owner starts wetting the bed just after putting in the new cat litter, the main reason is that the owner is picky and does not approve of the new cat litter.

Solution: Slowly replace the cat litter with new cat litter, just like changing food, and guide the owner to slowly adapt.

The size of the cat litter box is inappropriate

This situation usually occurs among new recruiters.
It is inappropriate to use a mini basin for a big fat cat or a tall basin for a small cat. It is just like using an oversized or ultra-small toilet for a person, and the owner will feel uncomfortable.
Solution: The size of the litter box is recommended to be 1.5 times the cat’s body length (excluding the tail). As the kitten grows into a big cat, it needs to be replaced with a larger litter box.

The cat owner’s little thoughts: take revenge on you or make you pay attention to it

Reflect on whether you have beaten or scolded it recently, causing it to have little thoughts of revenge on you?
In fact, cats are very smart and will hold grudges when scolded, so they will secretly retaliate against you.

If this is the case with your master, then just try to spend more time with him and ease the relationship.

Familiar environments have changed.

Cat owners are very sensitive to environmental changes. The movement of furniture and the presence of strangers in the home can cause cats to panic. If your cat wets the bed at this time, it really doesn’t mean it. It just wants to leave the smell on the bed to make itself feel safe. In this case, the dog owner should soothe the dog’s emotions and provide a stable environment.
Take preventive measures before they happen. If you find that your cat has a desire to pee on the bed, you must stop it as soon as possible. You can scold it loudly or catch it directly. You must give it a serious warning and criticism, and let it know that it is not allowed to wet the bed. .
