TLC Carpet Care in Castle Rock can offer a few reasons why your cat may not always use the litter box: 

• Sickness: Like people, cats can also get sick and suffer from virus and bacterial problems that can cause them to not be able to control things. You can schedule an appointment with your Castle Rock vet, to find out whether your cat is sick with a virus or a urine infection. In some cases your cat may just need some medication and rest and we know your cat doesn't mind a nap. 

   

• Bad Habits: If you happened to adopt an older cat, bad habits maybe why and one of them is not using the litter box and they may not be use to the location. If you’ve vet has ruled out sickness as a possibility this might be the reason your cat doesn’t use their litter box, they're in a new environment and the location may take getting use to for them. 

   

• Disease:  Senior cats may have a hard time walking fast and they also may have bladder problems not having the ability to get to the litter box in time and have an accident on your carpet instead. Putting the litter box close to where they sleep and eat may help.
