We have a tiny ginger baby girl, rare as that is. She's a shoulder kitten. She's a car kitten. Have cat, will travel. In so many ways she's just so perfect, but she wets our bed. We can't let her in the bedroom as a result. After doing some reading, it may be an attachment thing. Now that she's on solid food we can get her on cat treats. Which we can scatter on the bed. Because they won't pee where they eat. Bette Midler the Bed Piddler** has met her match. Soon we will fix this broken cat. ** Not her actual name, but I call her that

Thanks to you I am now rewatching Futurama as I remembered Nibbler ;)

Griff is right. Always have litter boxes in the most highly trafficked rooms. Don't put the litter box in some out-of-the-way place because the cat will not want to use it. At least, according to Jackson Galaxy[^]
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.
There's a litter box right next to the bed. It isn't that. She routinely uses the litter box. The only other place she'll go is on the bed. She's marking.

Exactly. We currently have 6 cats and there are several places around the house where we know marking happens. For example, we leave lots of bottles of cleaning products on the worktops in the utility room, rather than store them in cupboards, simply so one of the cats has no space to jump up and mark the power sockets tripping the circuit breaker!

That's a lot of cats to manage.

My experience with a succession of 180 foster cats and kittens says that the kittens cannot be trusted without direct supervision – to grab one and run for the litter box when it started hunting. Ours were kept in a smaller room overnight, until they proved themselves and could graduate to the nearby kitchen. (We did much the same thing for puppy training, except the small overnight space was a box beside the bed.)

I love that cat owners attribute cat behaviour to some ancient, unconscious and irresistable drive passed down, DNA strand by DNA strand, through each generation. Instead of the calculated and deliberate actions they are. (he says, as a devoted cat servant who lets his little grey shadow get away with murder)

That is rare! I was told that gingers only come in the male edition.

Oooh, I'll have to try that - I have cat that 90% of the time uses the litterbox. It's the 10% that's annoying, and lacking a door on the bedroom, when I'm not myself in the bed, I have to cover the bed with things cats don't like to pee on. It works, but it's an annoying additional task when making the bed every morning.
