Peeing problem on a new housed older cat

Hi,

I have just taken on my first cat. Took her from a rescue centre, and she is about 14 years old, but in great health.

I do have a problem though, she uses her litter tray fine for a number 2, but she uses my front door mat for a number 1. Why does she do this? During her first couple of days she used the tray fine, then over the last week she has not. I have changed the litter regualy and use a good quality one.

Any ideas?

Paul

I would provide her with an extra tray in a different location. Some cats just don't like to pee and poo in the same tray (no matter how clean you keep it).

Yes, maybe an idea to provide a second tray with a different type of litter.
