About a year ago, I adopted a feral cat, Ramona. She has always been very territorial, attacking my other cats. Now 2 of my other cats have taken to attacking her. All are inside cats. Ramona "lives" in just the kitchen and dining room of my very large house, spending most of her time on the island in the kitchen because of the vantage point I think. I have put a covered litter pan in the kitchen. The other cats also use it, although they have litter pans in another area of the house. Ramona has begun to urinate outside the pan. My guess is that she's afraid of being trapped in there by the other cats. Usually she urinates in an area far from the litter pan. Today, she urinated on the kitchen counter! Help. Any suggestions?

The only thing I can think of is to either keep this cat completly separated from your other two or to get more litter boxes and place them around the kitchen..it also may help if you uncover the litter box - this way maybe she will use it since she wouldnt be able to get trapped inside by the other two cats.
