How Do You Prevent A Cat From Pooing In The Bathtub?

I have 2 cats, one aged 11 and one aged approximately 1 3/4. We adopted the younger one last fall as company for our older cat after our other beloved cat passed away due to liver failure. The younger cat poos in the bathtub, despite the fact that I scoop both cats%26#039; litter boxes twice a day, put in pet litter deodorizer, and wash out boxes often. Each cat uese her own litter box. My vet suggested last fall that we put a garbage bag or tin foil in the bathtub as cats don%26#039;t like the fact that they are slippery. No such luck - she (she%26#039;s spayed too) pulled it back and pooed in the corner. After 2 weeks in our new apt., she started pooing. I%26#039;ve now closed the bathroom door. My mum used to rub poo in the noses of our pets if they ever pooed where they were not to. I finally tried that, though I felt guilty doing so, and she knows she%26#039;s not supposed to poo there. She tries anyway, and it%26#039;s a nuisance keeping the bathroom door closed - with no window, it gets humid. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Reply:Close the bathroom door and keep it closed. You might install one of those sliding door bathtub enclosures, instead of using a shower curtain :)
Reply:the cat may be offended by something you use in. or on. the litterbox. if that don%26#039;t work just get the cat by itself and reenforce usage of the litterbox.....you could also have urine residue on the bathroom floor. etc. that is causing the cat to do its business there. hope this helps.......good luck........
Reply:You%26#039;re having to clean the tub before you bath now anyway, so try leaving about a half of an inch of water in the tub. She%26#039;ll jump over in the tub and jump out just about as fast.Sure you%26#039;ll have to deal with wet paw tracks a couple of times, but 9 out of 10,she won%26#039;t like the water. Hope it works for you it did for me!
Reply:Fill it with water.
