Most likely your cat is very active,
he needs more exercise, more in comparison to other cats.
He needs more games in which he can fully display his hunting instincts, so that he can feel dominant and awaken it in him, otherwise, if he does not get enough physical activity, he may even feel depressed and tense, show reclusive emotions due to depression (
yes,
this is possible,
cats have their own psychology,
but it is correctable).
It is also likely that your cat needs more free and safe space. If you lived in a private house in the suburb, you could create something like an aviary or a fenced area where the cat can explore the environment without the risk of running away or getting into dangerous situations (
although this is more relevant for dogs,
but some cats have a more wild character and may need open space,
which is quite natural,
given their Nature). I understand that in your situation this option is impossible, so I would think about how to create the most comfortable conditions for the pet in the apartment, in terms of freedom of movement. I had a similar problem with my cat, but I solved it by simply opening the doors to all rooms so that the cat could move around, my cat really doesn't like closed doors.
Although you can train them to a harness and walk them on a leash. This will give them a chance to explore the world while remaining under your control. Of course, provided your cat allows it. Many people walk their cats this way, despite the stereotype that this is exclusively dog behavior. Very active cats find salvation in this way, so
they can release their energy outside the four walls.
If the cat continues to pee and poop in inappropriate places, I would suggest that
it could be a sign of stress or a medical problem. See your veterinarian to rule out possible medical conditions such as
urinary tract infections. This is a common situation.
I would also suggest that you try to re-train your cat to use the litter box. Make sure the litter tray is clean and in a place that is comfortable for him. If he continues to ignore the litter tray, try using different types of fillers or litter trays. My cat ignored a certain type of litter box filler because of the odor he was uncomfortable with, and he often peed on the bed. The problem was solved when I purchased a different litter box filler for him. It is important to note here that if your cat likes any type of litter box filler and litter box, he goes to the toilet there, then
do not change them,
because the cat is already used to the smell,
he has marked the territory there, and the change of these components for him is tantamount to a change of environment. After that,
use one type of filler and one litter box for one pet. And yes, as correctly noted here,
make sure your cat is spayed or neutered.
If things don't improve,
it may be worth contacting a professional animal behavior trainer or a veterinarian who specializes in behavior. They can make recommendations based on your specific case. Some professionals are even able to correct
cats' behavioral mechanisms. This is certainly not training, cats are difficult to train, but they can be developed conditioned reflexes and certain patterns. In the Spiritual sense it can even be done through
Merging Astral Consciousness and Installation of Telepathic Signals (
any animal can have a strong Telepathic Connection and even control its behavior,
as well as treat the animal,
etc.), but one can go the way of
Psychophysiology and try to find a solution in this way.
In the end, if you really feel you can't cope with the cat,
it may be worth considering placing it in caring hands where it can get the attention and space it needs to live. As such incompatibility, which is what we mean by
Synastry, is not present here, it's just that you're not used to this breed and this kind of pet character. Just don't feel anger, aggression or irritation because of it. Just this cat needs more attention, activity and care,
he is unique and you should not blame him for it.
