Pee problems
by Heather
(Wyoming, MI)
I noticed when my cat goes pee, he starts off squating like normal cats and as he starts, his butt lifts up til he's not squating and his tail shakes and he ends up peeing all over the wall or the back of the box if it has a lid. Any ideas as to what it might be?

This is normally the action of a cat marking his territory ie spraying his urine around.
The other possible cause is that he may have some discomfort caused by a urinary infection.
Is your cat neutered I wonder? If not then it does sound more like he is trying to make his litter area smell more like him. this could be caused by so many things, have you read my pages about cat urine problems? It has some possible reasons why a cat may feel stressed and feel the need to mark there territory.
If you cannot think of any possible causes of why your cat may feel the need to mark then perhaps it may be worth getting him checked by the vet just in case he does have a urinary problem.
