Thank you for using PetCoach. Desexing or spaying both females may help with this problem drastically. Sometimes inappropriate elimination can be due to hormonal influences. Also, be sure that there are at least 3 litter boxes available for 2 cats. Clean the boxes at least once daily. Be sure to use enzymatic cleaners for pet urine on the floors where they have urinated, they will continue to mark there if they can smell it. in some cases, you may need to rip up the area to replace the carpet and any padding under it. In some cases, urinary tract infections may cause this problem to start, so I would recommend a vet visit for the Mom cat in case this is why it started, her kitten is likely just following her example. Here is some more info that may help you get this under control. https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951508 https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&catId=102901&id=4951925&ind=720&objTypeID=1007 https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&catId=102901&id=4951911&ind=721&objTypeID=1007 Good luck, I hope this helps.
