  • Is the litter box kept clean? Ours only do that when we neglect it too long.
  • Maybe she is afraid to go into the garage for some reason. Usually cats poop in inappropriate places because they don't like the litter, it isn't clean enuf for them or they don't want to share with another cat. Cats are fastidious and like clean litter boxes. Some won't use it if there is any poop in it at all. Good luck!
  • Accidents happen...:( Is your litter box clean ? Sometimes cats can be picky. If the accidents continue I would try changing brands of kitty litter. If the kitty is peeing in the wrong places on a regular bases (and is female) I would have her checked out for a bladder infection just to make sure its not a physical issue.. good luck !
  • A few things could be going on. If the cat has only been there for a few weeks he culd have just gotten a bit disoriented and couldn't hold it any more. Also, each cat has a difference tolerance level for how clean the cat box is, some will not use it if it is full. The third thing might be the kitty door, sometimes cats take awhile to get used to using them and the easy way to handle that is to leave it propped open for awhile until they are comfortable with it. I wouldn't worry about the occasional accident, as long as it doesn't become a normal habit with the cat.
  • There may be another cat prowling around just outside the garage. A young cat might be intimidated by this. Keep the box as close as possible to the kitty door, this might help. Good luck.
