Morning dude,
After the debacle of the last few days, Small Kitty seems to be back on track for now (knock on wood).
Yesterday when I arrived home I went crazy on cleaning with vinegar (white) to erase all possible urine smells. The top cover of the litter boxes were cleaned with dish soap and rinsed in the shower. All pee routes are now pointing to the litter boxes, hope it’s fixed. The biggest improvement, I think, is letting them (Small Kitty and Big Brother) go out. Yesterday at 20h the double doors (one behind the other) cat trap was opened for the first time in a while. Small Kitty was so confused that he made a 360 before opening and go out. I don’t know how they sustained the cold wind. The apartment walls were shaking and everything not attached outside must have been flying. For sure nobody was out feeding cats, all doors were locked and blind closed. Strangely enough, Big brother came home during the night and threw out. When I woke up this morning the spot was there, consisting of… GRASS ! Heck, don’t get it, these kitties are fed by 1-1/2 can each meal plus another quarter one at night (to push sugar level up a bit when needed). Big brother might have missed his target in the dark and grabbed weed instead of a bird or mouse
.
SL went down also, on the edge of green. Small Kitty was happy this morning, I put him on my lap before departing to the office and he stayed there purring. Like I did yesterday night, I’ll give him more attentions. All over the internet was said that peeing might be a mean to says :’’ Hey ! Remember I’m there ?? Mind taking care of me ???’’.
So all ingredients for improvement are there, less meowing, no peeing, better sleep. Future will tell if it’s going to remain like that, hope it will.

I had a roommate a long time ago that didn't like to clean her cat's litter box very often. Her normally very sweet, loving and docile cat didn't like that and told her so...by jumping up on her bed and peeing on her while she was sleeping, it was a pretty clear message.
