Pet's info: Cat | Ragdoll | Male | unneutered | 1 month and 14 days old | 0.5 lbs
My kitty of a month or so has just started peeing in his food bowls and other random spots , asked the vet and he didn't offer any reasons why or what to do to make it stop . There food is expensive and I'm just throwing it all away . Same litter same food , I moved the litter box to the middle of the house now that they are big enough to roam the house ( small apartment, ) he was doing fine at first but now if he's not locked in his room he pees in his dry food bowls . Plz help

It may be something frightened him in the new location and he is looking for a safer option. I recommend having a second litter tray in the room he prefers as a back up. Trays should be in a quiet, undisturbed location, not near noisy or unpredictable things such as washing machines. A calming supplement can help also and it is important to encourage frequent, stress free urination by facilitating his preferred options to reduce the risk of urinary tract inflammation and irritation
