Anyways, sometimes this guy uses the litter box, and other times he doesn't. We can't figure out why.
I googled this and found a few tips, implemented all of them, and the little fucker just pissed on the carpet again....and we just steam cleaned them yesterday!!

Anyways, my patience is wearing thin and I'd really hate to put him out and see him get all banged up and shit again.....but I can't have a house that smells like cat urine.
If any of you have any suggestions that will keep this kitty from becoming homeless I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
