That is very strange. I wonder if when she was a newborn baby she was allowed to pee wherever she was and now just doesn't know the difference. I had a stray kitten who was never litterbox trained by her mother and went everywhere. I think maybe the cage idea might work. I would try that and also tell her she's in there because she won't pee in her box. Maybe she'll get it and if you let her out she'll start using her box. I would try the cage for a while and tell her why she's in the cage. They do understand words. My cat recognizes words when we say them to her.

My cat has always done #1 only in her box and she's 15 years now. She sometimes can't make her box when it's #2 but she tries. I put some newspaper outside her box and she uses that just for #2 sometimes. But always in her box she pees, and always has.

Good luck.

My male persian, Aslan has started doing this also I am am at my wits end and daily having to deal with wherever he feels like urinating. Today it was my coat, my daughters boots, and my son's school trousers! Yesterday it was my boots, my daughters homework book and my younger daughters toy. It is beyond ridiculous, and it is extremely upsetting for my children, not to mention totally stressful for myself. We have 4 litter trays in the house, ALL FOR HIM!!! My 3 other cats, moggies, who all lived here before him all do their business outside. Aslan is 2. He hasn't always done this, he did go through a phase once of pooing on the kids beds, but the urinating issue has come on suddenly. As has doing a runner to the neighbours bush for the night (he has always been an indoor cat)

I agree w/ shammrock. It may be a health issue, especially if this has not been an ongoing problem. I had a boy that had cancer, which by the way is alot of times hard for vet's to detect in our furry friends. Your baby is getting older and we all know sometimes frequent urination ( if that's the case ) alot of times is kidney problems. This is what happened to my boy. He had a tumor. I hope you can get this resolved, with happy results.
