Thank you for submitting your question regarding Jimmy Choo. I am sorry to hear about your situation. How frustrating! A lot of times, I recommend that the cat is seen by his veterinarian to ensure he does not have a medical problem. However, at his age, a urinary tract infection or inflammation is less likely. My guess is that he is very young and is having accidents. You can add another litter box to your bedroom or place him in a small room with a litter box over night. Be sure to provide water. This will help him to use to the box overnight. Once he is not having accidents at night, you can allow him access to your bed again. I hope this information helps!
