Our little Lovey, whom we've had for 1 year now, (and she's 3) was doing great with regulating going to the bathroom outside, etc. when today, my husband found a wet spot ON THE SOFA! I can't believe it and we're completely bewildered - I work from home, we are constantly doting on her, and why she would do such a thing unless we've got her so spoiled, is beyond us. HELP!

If this is completely out of character for her, and you are 100% sure none of her potty times were missed, have her checked out by the vet. A completely out of character accident can be a sign of illness, like a UTI.

Maybe the vet can tell you if it's a health issue OR an attitude problem.

I also work from home and doted on my fur kids. In one of her many tempter-tantrums, Ruby peed on my couch because I wasn't giving her all the attention she wanted. Attitude problem!!! After 4 years of trying to find a "happy place" where we could all live together with some sort of normalcy, I had to rehome her.

Hope you find an answer and cure.
