Most cat litter box issues can be solved if owners are willing to adapt and figure out the root cause. Surrendering a pet says more about the owner than the cat. You can either be stubborn, or you can listen to your pet—if you aren't willing to adapt, your pet deserves a family that will.

I came across a great concept today called "Location Function Switching" that explains how to address marking and spraying issues:

Cats rarely mark areas where they eat, sleep, or play. When a cat sprays a specific spot, they view it as a territorial boundary or stress marker. Switching means changing how the cat perceives that exact space:
Food/Treat Switch: Place a feeding bowl, treat puzzle, or catnip station directly over the cleaned spot.
Resting Switch: Move a cozy bed or cat perch directly to that location.
Alternative Marking Switch: Put a tall scratching post right over the area. Scratching leaves scent from their paw pads, giving them an acceptable way to mark. You can also rub a soft cloth on your cat’s cheeks and wipe it on the spot to leave a "safe" scent.
Does it work?
Yes, but three steps are critical:

1. Use an enzymatic cleaner first. Standard cleaners don't break down uric acid. If any urine scent remains, the cat will mark it again regardless of what you put there.
2. Target specific spots. This works best if your cat targets 1–3 specific areas. Random spraying across the whole house usually points to a broader issue.
3. Address the root trigger. Whether it's seeing stray cats outside, conflict with other pets, or stress, redirection only provides temporary relief if the main cause isn't fixed.
(Always consult a vet first to rule out UTIs or other medical issues!)
If you love your cat, finding a solution is worth the effort. Jackson Galaxy also has tons of free YouTube videos with great advice if you need more help!
