[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this is cruel.  What kind of life will he have?  What quality?

He is 15.  I know it's hard to even consider.[b]  But, if you're going to make him live like that, IMO the most humane thing would be to put him down.[/b]

We had to do it with our 14 year old dog.  It hurt like hell, it's been over a year and I still miss him.  But he had no quality of life anymore.

IF you insist on one or the other, give him the laundry room with a small window.  Alternatively, if he only does it when you're away..?  Put him in there when you leave..?[/quote]

That's crazy - quit stressing this poor woman out.
He's a cat, he'll be fine.

I'm a huge animal lover & foster & have numerous pets. I wouldn't banish an animal to a laundry room unless desperate, but that's not the end of the world.

OP has the kitty been tested for a UTI? Bladder irritation?
What about kidney function?

What do you feed kitty? Just dry kibble or wet food only? Be specific please.

How often do you change the litter box? Can you add an extra one next to it so one is always clean?

Also, if your family is not allergic you can spray the sofa or any other area you want to redirect kitty from with a scented spray.
Also, if you put scented sticks around the area kitty might stop confusing it with a potty as well. I use stuff like this:
