[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 607463, member: 1233"] DEFINITELY allow her to be an outside cat. I do not know many people who have cats who will use a covered litter box if an uncovered one is available. Actually, I have only ever known one cat who would accept a covered box and she had been in a home iwth a bunch of cats that would attack from behind any time she used a litter box or even pottied outside of a box. They had one really mean crazy cat in that house iwth about six other cats and the six others all would wedge themselves behind furniture to potty because of those attacks. The friend who adopted the one cat finally realized what was going on and got a cover for the litter box and the poor cat was so thrilled with it. But I don't know of many other cats who want anything to do with a covered box. It really really sounds like the cat is seriously unhappy and depressed. Let her out make sure she has plenty of food and water, and I bet she will be very very happy. She likely won't live as long as an indoor only cat, but herlife will have quality and in my humble opinion that is SOOOOO much better than living this unhappy. If you cannot do that, you should surrender her to another home. You don't have the resources to cope with a very unhappy cat as they can become vry expensive. lus it isn't fair to the cat to have her live so unhappy. I am glad theo ther one is a big comfort to you. [/QUOTE]
