I bought a six month old female ragdoll from another family who said they were never at home due to one of the childrens medical conditions. I have now had her 2and a half month and she poos anywhere but in the litter tray. I have tried various types of litter and located it in different places. I work from home so there is always company for her. I also have a 10 mth old Tonkinese cat and thet get along very well. However I am at the end of my tether as I have tried everything ,even sectioning her into a smaller room but still she poos everywhere. I really am almost at the point of trying to rehome her but the 3 children love her. Any suggestions please.

I have just in the last week found a stray ragdoll on my farm, I started to make friends with it, by feeding it as it was starving, finally got to pick it up and take it into the house. I put it into a small spare bathroom with mats, food, water and litter box with pine and paper pellets. It peed on the mat and poohed. Then I went outside and got some earth from where I had spotted the cat doing its business. I am hoping this will work, as I won’t let it thru my house. I have another female ragdoll, she is my best friend. I hope to either find the owner, or I have made up my mind to keep and look after this wonderful cat. Went to the vets this morning to see if it had a micro chip or ear tatoo, but it didn’t have. So I will contact the local Spca, pound, etc in my area, then in about two weeks I will claim it. I had the vet test its blood, and a few other things to make sure it is healthy and had it dewormed. It is not spayed yet. The vet said it is about 7 months old. My neighbours said the cat has been running around for 7 weeks or more so I will do my best for the cat. My farm has coyotes, racoons, deer, fox etc, I don’t know how this cat has survived in our winter conditions and the other wild animals. To all who want to know – the ragdoll cats are just super, they love you and family and friends. Hope someone can help me with the litter box thing. Elaine
