My husband and I have 2 cats. There is my cat a momma's boy and my husband's cat a daddy's girl. It just kinda ended up that way. It was funny because he picked out the boy and I picked out the girl.
We got our girl Nova first around December of 2017 so she was a year old. We got Eclipse our boy the next September of 2018 when he was about 6 months old. They had no issues with each other besides the boy constantly wanting to play and her not wanting to. But she still rubs up against him and is not fearful or uncomfortable around him at all.
Around fall 2019 I started staying at home fulltime. I became disabled and could no longer work. It was about this time when the behavior started. Let me preface this although Eclipse sees me directly as his human and Nova sees my husband has hers we both have great relationships with each other's cat. When my husband is on dayshift Nova will sleep in my room and take naps with me. I give her lots of pets and I am the sole provider of food and I take care of the litterboxes.
So. Whenever there is anything on the floor that smells like me, Nova will pee on it. A shirt, a blanket anything. She pees and poops in her own litterbox as well with no issues. But she is constantly peeing on anything that I happen to leave on the floor. My husband's clothes on the floor are fine but anything that I've worn or smells like me is a target. Easy answer? Don't leave anything on the floor. But I know that I want to know why this is happening. We have a great relationship.
I'm worried it has something to do with Eclipse. He is obsessed with me and will not leave my side. I cannot be in a different room than him with a door closed or within 3 minutes he will start crying at the door. And his behavior of jumping on her I'm starting to suspect may be more possessive of me than trying to play. Whenever we left them both alone before Corona we would usually find both of them sleeping together. So I'm starting to think his "wanting to play" is more "Get away from my human" though he is not aggressive at all just jumpy. No hissing or anything.
I hope someone can help. I love Nova so much and I just want to fix whatever is going on in our relationship. I would also appreciate not having to wash everything of mine.
