I, too, have had the problem of pissy cats. Usually, they were no longer kittens when I adopted them, or there was already another cat around causing terrirorial problems.

There is a product on the market that you can buy at most any pet store (sorry I forget the name, but the sales staff will know what you mean). In severe cases you cage the cat in a large crate with his litter pan with that special stuff sprayed in the pan. After that, you can confine him to one room with treated litter pan. After about a week, you let him into the rest of the house, but still treat the litter pan. Worked like a charm for me.

Say, maybe we SHOULD have a pets' forum!

Marichiko do you mean Feliway? It's a cat pheremone spray, and helps cats feel they are in a safe place, which can reduce the incidences of inappropriate peeing. I bought a plug in diffuser for my flat and it seems to have worked (hard to say without a control of course)

Either way I've been lucky in rehoming my 2 - they've not missed the litter tray once. Although I'm heading home with a new bag in a few minutes (I am close to being completely out, and the only petshop within walking distance ran out of the brand I've been using) so I may regret boasting about this.
