My two-year old, Athena, started peeing in the BATHTUB once last year. Interestingly enough, this was the only way I was likely to notice the blood in her urine--cystitus was the problem, but once I was "apprised", I had her treated and she's fine now. Smart cat. It could also be a plea for more attention, but since I don't know your circumstances, I can't tell. Try (when the kitten "goes" in front of you) to pick her(?) up IMMEDIATELY and PLACE HER IN HER BOX. This usually gets the message across. Scott J. Berry Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
