cat peeing on dog's bed?
Our cat that we've had for 1.5 years and has never had any problem with going in the litter box has ruined every dog bed I've bought. We got a puppy (now a dog) 6 months ago, and although the animals get along pretty well and play together (that took awhile) I think that our (female, spayed) cat is being territorial. am i wrong? Every time I buy a bed for the dog, or even if the dog spent awhile laying on a pillow on the couch or the bed, the cat will end up peeing on that item with a 1-2 days. I am confident it's not health related as it's happened around 6 times in the last 6 months, with no other timing than when the dog claims a new bed. We have 2 litter boxes for her and both are cleaned very regularly.
Any suggestions how to fix this problem? My husband claims he is going to take the cat back to the shelter that we adopted her from while I'm at work one day because he is so sick of her... I don't want to lose her but it is very frustrating that she's detroying our things.
This is a common problem. Its all about being territorial, even if it meens destroying your things. It also may be jealousy since this just started when you got the pup. Yet, it is an easy problem to solve. Cats are naturally clean animals, and will not eat around the places they use the restroom. So next time you get a doggie bed place her food dishes by it. This should stop her from peeing on it. And as far as other items like pillows, if you have a doggie bed and the dog uses it that should be the only place your cat wants to pee. Hope this helps!!

Why a Dog Bed?
Some people, (and I hope not many) may ask, why a dog needs a dog bed? It is amazing to me, that without fail, every time I brought home a foster dog, he/she would naturally try to rest on my dog Zoe's bed even when she was resting there. I remember seeing a very old little Dachshund that I fostered, trying to cram with Zoe in her bed, or sometimes there are large breeds, and they would do the same (and no, she was not happy about it!). So why do dogs tend to do that? Why don't they simply prefer to lie on the floor? Well, it's simple; they know what's good.
Besides the comfort in a dog bed, which dogs definitely appreciate, there may be another reason. Dogs are territorial. They know what's theirs, what belong to them and they protect that. Does this sound familiar? When a dog enters a new home, he/she knows that the spot where the pet bed is placed is his/her territory - their little space. It is very important to let them have this feeling of belonging and security. There is a sense of security that comes with a bed for your dog in your house. Whenever the dog comes back home from an exciting walk, or any outdoor activity, he/she gravitates to their bed to rest in. This becomes even more important if you have more than one dog, and they don't tend to like to rest together - provide each of them with a different pet bed. With this approach, each one gets their needs and they will fight less for this piece of territory.
I mentioned ‘comfort' earlier. Dogs deserve comfort; a good pet bed promotes a deep level of sleep at night, and a joyful active day. For dogs that don't get to exercise often, it is even more important to provide them with a high quality bed, as they are more prone to Arthritis in the future. (Please get your dog the exercise that he/she needs, it is extremely important for their emotional well being, as well as their physique).
Be thoughtful and tuned in to your dog's needs, as he/she can't talk and ask for whatever it is they want. Show your dog that you love them!
