The recently popular pet blogger "Cat Slave Diary" on Douyin also shared his experience: "When I found that the cat at home started to pee randomly, I first checked its health, then improved the location and cleaning frequency of the litter box, and increased the interaction time. After about two weeks, the cat's behavior returned to normal."
