Read lots of good info on 1 kitten peeing on bed, but our 2 new rescues (7 wks) are sometimes peeing on bed. All bed linens replaced, litter box in same room. They both use box for poop & mostly for peeing. We place them in box after play, sleep & feeding. Using praise & no bad consequences. I am home all day to monitor them. Any ideas, please?

Only to keep them out of your room. It seems alot of kittens do this but the reason is not apparent.
If you catch them at it calmly pick the kitten up, even mid-flow, and place them in the box.
This worked with my kitten that kept going in the corner.

Good Luck

jrf just e-amiled me back about this. She wrote,
"I did see my vet yesterday
after sending out my email query and he reminded me that we had
duplicated a nest situation by having them sleep w/us & even eat on the
bed. Of course, in their previous nest, their mommy took care of their
piddles so they were free to potty in the nest. Now, I have HIGH hopes."
I wasn't aware of this and thought it was interesting...
