Alfie and the litterbox laxness

[qtipthebun]

Mr. Alf has taken to peeing a little bit on the carpet outside the box. He only does it right next to it, never in another room.
Any idea how to curb a suddenly pee happy bun? He's real good most of the time but its happened like three times in a week.
He's a neuteted, bonded, 3ish year old Californian.

Not sure how to curb it other than cleaning with a mix of vinegar/water to get rid of the smell.

I would be concerned about a possible UTI or some other medical problem if it is a sudden change in litter habit and nothing else has changed.

Well he is fairly newly adopted, so it might be a dominance thing with tippy. I clean with vinegar and ill buy a puppy pad tomorrow but yea, maybe a vet visit soon is in order....
