Good morning. I’m coming to the strip for advice for a friend today.
She has 9 cats (the house is big – 2 levels and can handle them. Lately, one or more has started to pee and poop outside of the box. EVERYWHERE!!! She spends her days cleaning. Counters, floors, you name it. All have been fixed and lived there a long time without any issues.
Her husband is mostly bedridden. He’s a smoker, refuses to stop even tho they are very poor. This causes her a lot of stress.
Does anyone think this could be the cause of the new behavior? Nothing has really changed in the house. The husband has been in this state, mostly by choice, ever since I met her over 3 yrs ago. Yesterday she asked me to research free online divorce forms for her. That’s how bad the stress is. She put off the divorce papers until they were pretty much forced to do a reverse mortgage because he threatened to kick her and all of the animals out and she had nowhere to go. But this reverse mortgage is in her name only so she stays but he will have to go.
She rarely leaves the house now because she can’t leave the cats alone.
