Cat Training

[jen porter]

arielWe have a 10 yr. old healthy cat. Ella is her name. She insists on peeing on the floor in our garage even when she has a clean accessible litter box. She especially seems to choose rope, jackets, or anything else that might be on the garage floor. She will also refuse to pee outside, then comes in and will pee on a floor mat in the house! We love her, but she is really treading on thin ice with my husband! Any advice, or why she might be doing this? Thanks, Jen
