Problem urination is the most frequent feline behavior problem for which veterinary consultation is sought. The first step is to differentiate between inappropriate urination and urine marking. This is an array of behavioral approaches that are particularly useful with inappropriate urination and may also be useful with urine marking. Anti-anxiety drugs may be used if behavioral approaches are not effective in treating urine marking or inappropriate urination.
