When my son moved to his first home, his rescue tabby, decided to urinate next to the fireplace in his family room...an outside wall. She is a feral who ran into his apartment one November, when he was taking the trash out. She was very thin, but healthy so he kept her.

He discovered, that she did not like the litter, he provided, and
when he changed the litter she stopped her bad habit. She came into heat twice before he had her spayed, and females are known to do this... leave scent for males to find. It can get complex where cats are concerned.
.


Sometimes it is illness that makes them do this, leave the litter box, and sometimes it is stress, and other times it can be a more obscure reason.
