Re: Help please! She seems to prefer the doormat to the litter tray.

You might want to consider an uncovered litter box as well. Even though she used one before, her preference might have changed. I know an uncovered box isn't exactly attractive but because a covered box can hold in moisture and bacteria it can cause a really foul odor in the box.

Do you have enough litter boxes? Sometimes a kitten needs a few more than an adult cat. I had an extra box for awhile because Ava couldn't make it to the one across the house.

I would also check with your vet. Maybe she has a urinary tract infection or something which would cause she to urinate outside of the box.

Hope that helps.
