Just get it over with. Tear out the carpet, seal the concrete floor, or pour acrylic sealant over the wood underfloor, then fill the room wall to wall with 3" of litter. Then buy those Japanese wood shoes with the two slats underneath to wear around the house. 🙂 ---

> [@Qwisp](#): > > I have two cats. I keep the litterbox very clean. It doesn’t matter. Every day one of the cats will shit on the floor. Just one lonely turd,screaming out to be noticed by the other cat. I’ve given up. I took all the rugs out of the bathroom and let the little piss ants play their game. I pick it up and disinfect the area. The cats have won,I’m just the lowly servant who feeds them The sooner you accept your cat’s overloardship, the happier you’ll be. What your cat is telling you is either the litter box stinks like piss and poop (duh) and you need to clean it better (swish some bleach around in it after you’ve scrubbed it) **OR** your cat hates your guts and wants you to hurry up and die a slow horrible death. Those dead mice it keeps bringing you, those are warnings, not gifts. ---

Our cat Bob became an outdoor cat because of this behavior. He began to think outside the box, as it were. He was happier, and we were much happier. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-am-going-to-kill-my-cat-if-he-doesnt-stop-shitting-on-the-floor/682277.md?page=1)
