Ever since I brought Sunny home last week he has been great at peeing in his litter box, until today while I had him out in the living room. sSo far this has been a daily thing, I set up rugs and a sheet for him in the living room and his litterbox and pellets, water, and let him play and explore. Never peed outside the box until a little bit ago.
At first I thought it was an accident, like his bottom hanging over the litterbox, because it was right at the litter box entrance, and I didn’t see him do it. Just a few mins ago I was on the floor with him, we were loving on each other (he always comes under my hand when I go to pet him and sticks his face up to the bottom of my wrist-smelling? being submissive, I dunno). Anyway, nothing unusual, until BAM, he turns around and sticks his rump in my direction and pees! He was not backed up against me or anything, but it WAS in my direction, in close proximity.
I’m just wondering if there is anything to this behavior? A submissive thing? A male thing? Just an accident? I know it may be hard to pinpoint, but what are some possible reasons for this? He’s 6 wks old. (remember, never peed outside his box for over a week since I’ve had him, today he did it TWICE)
