Why is my cat pooping outside the litter box after a location change?

Question

I had to change the place of litter box due to a reconstruction at my home and my cat now only urinates in it. He opens his bowel on the floor near the litter box. Even i keep him inside the box he chooses the floor and passes stool infront of me. I changed the place of litter box( old place is not available now) but it didnt help. What should i do? Please help. Thanks! Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Male | unneutered | 6 months and 2 days old | 4.85 lbs

It can be very stressful for cats if they have changes in their house. I would recommend a few different things for Pelly. The first is neutering him, the second is a urine sample looking for a urinary tract infection and the third is behavioral medication that can be prescribed from your veterinarian. thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
