It sounds like Maxi may be having some incontinence issues. Especially if these puddles of urine are left behind after he is sleeping on the bed. However if he is actively urinating and squating on the bed, then he is just spraying, which could be an caused by stress, usually from an underlying illness that isn’t being managed well. In Maxi’s case his kidney disease may need to be re-evaluated. I would even suggest getting his blood pressure checked because high blood pressure can stress out cats. I would recommend starting by getting his urine checked by your vet again to ensure there is no active urinary tract infection or crystals seen in his urine. Urinary incontinence isn’t very common in cats, so there likely is an underlying condition causing this (ie UTI, bladder stones, stress). Once we know the cause then the appropriate treatment can be implemented to help stop this behavior. I hope this helps and that Maxi gets well soon. Best wishes and take care.
