Features:
Congrats on getting your new kitty. I really wish I had this subreddit when I adopted my girls almost six years ago. As a dog person, I've had a lot to learn. You seem like you're off to a good start.
​
​
I hope some of this helps. Sorry it's so long. My cats are both asleep and I'm just Redditing while waiting for Game of Thrones to come on.
​
(Edited for formatting)
I'm really glad to hear things have improved. Yes, it's very likely he needed time to adjust to his new home. With any luck he will continue to improve over time.
Are you going away over the holidays? I ask because you said he got more destructive after your trip this spring.
This product might help with his scratching at the carpet outside the door.
Does he have any scratchers near the sofa? It's great that he stops now when you tell him to, but you could take it a step further and redirect him to the scratcher with lots of praise when he uses it. Even if he already has scratchers elsewhere, sometimes it really helps to put one right next to the object they're scratching, since they apparently feel the need to mark their territory in that particular area.
Do you trim his nails regularly? If not, that can help control the amount of damage. There are also nail covers that you can try.
>sometimes it really is like it's some kind of attention seeking behaviour.
One of my cats (the passive one I mentioned before) will tap me with her front paw to get attention, which sounds ok except when she gets really anxious (or hungry), she'll follow me constantly, getting underfoot and repeatedly tapping my legs and screeching, and if I can't deal with her directly, she will begin adding a scrape with her claws when she taps. Is he doing something like that?
Oh, one more thought: he might like the toys that dispense kibbles or treats. That would be another thing to try for when he's alone during the day. If you're not familiar with them, it takes work (both physical and mental) for the cat to get the treat out of the toy, which helps satisfy cats' hunting instinct.
Try a free-feeding puzzle feeder. My cat got to a chonking 16 pounds (which is large for her size). We purchased a Catit puzzle feeder and she lost the weight in a few months. And she’s maintained herself at a perfect (for her) weight of 8.5 lbs for over 2 years now. Because my girl is a natural borne ✨Diva✨ my husband was against it at first, but it’s cheap, so...what’s to lose? I spent a couple minutes poking my fingers in and knocking bits down to show her the idea and she took to it like a fish to water. We now have a second one, of a different style and different maker, that we put elsewhere in the house and fill with a different flavor/type of food. Both my cats love them. The idea is to prevent them from easily eating too much when bored and to make eating more stimulating, like a hunt.
They can eat as much as they want for as long as they want, but they have to earn every last kibble of it. My (former) fat cat seemed to live in front of the feeder at first - knocking food down most of her waking hours. But now it’s just a few times a day, and maybe a single tablespoon’s worth of food at a time.
This is another Catit puzzle feeder. They also have a variety of puzzle feeder toys - if you’re OK with bits of kibble all over the house. This is just one example.
(We actually just had to put our former chonker on a special renal diet. (She’s 18). We picked her favorite puzzle feeder and changed just it to the new, specialty food and left the normal food in the other. My two girls haven’t had a stitch of trouble telling which is which. I think the only downside - as they see it - is that they’ve lost the diversity of two feeders. (According to the stuff I’ve read, they recommend multiple feeders spaced around the house to engage their instinct to search out food.) But I’ll be damned if I’m going to have multiples for each type of food spaced around the house. After all, there’s only so much room in my house.)
Oh, an igloo like this might be a good choice. You might have to clean the sides and steps every so often, but if it helps get the poop off the feet, it might be easier than your entire bathroom.
Even though your cat’s poops appear normal, it might be worth bringing it up the next time you see your vet. They might have food recommendations that would result in more solid cleaner poops.
I use I and Love and You cat food. They also have a higher level food too. I think it's pretty good quality for a decent price for grain free.
If you’ve just fed him and he has access to water he might just be bored. My girl tends to sleep through the night but my friends would yell at night too. He ended up getting a few automatic toys to keep him occupied. This was one the things he got:
https://www.amazon.com/Moody-Pet-Fling-Ama-String-Cat-Toy/dp/B00IRJ7NL0
Other than that I can just recommend ignoring him so he’ll learn that he will only get attention when he’s quiet. Hope this helps, best of luck!
I have a long hair cat that gets matts under her arms even with brushing. I bought this trimmer to remove the matts myself at home and it works fantastic! I tried using a beard trimmer first but it wouldn't cut through her fur at all. This one worked great and I had the matt out in under 10 seconds.

​
Amazon has a pretty good one in its basics lineup. I ordered two for my cats and it was comparable to a much more expensive branded one. They've also held up very well.

Did you use an enzymatic cleaner? I've had really good success with this one: https://www.amazon.com/Mister-Max-Original-Remover-Gallon/dp/B000I6NF6W
Go ahead and edit your place! :)
I switched to World's Best because of the dust I had with Tidy Cat unscented. It's made from corn. It has significantly lessened the dust problem and not tracking if you use a litter mat under the box. It's a bit lighter (easier to carry if you purchase at a shop) and lasts quite a bit longer! It's made from corn and clumps very well.

It really depends on what your cat likes scratching on. Some cats prefer cardboard, some sisal rope, some other surfaces. Some cats prefer horizontal scratching, some prefer angled scratching, and some like to stretch as high as possible.
If you're looking for a "buy it for life" kind of purchase, I recommend this one: https://www.amazon.com/SmartCat-3832-Ultimate-Scratching-Post/dp/B000634MH8/ref=sr_1_13
I've had that one for four years with three cats and it looks the same as it did out of the box.
When it comes to my cats favorite scratchers in the world, their absolute favorite is this one, but it doesn't last as long as the plastic ones because it's corrugated cardboard. You have to replace it about every nine months.
If you want to test out whether they are cardboard scratchers before investing you can get a $7 flat cardboard scratcher here. These will last about 3-4 months.
I like putting some dry food along with a few treats in a puzzle ball before bed. You can adjust the number of open gaps (and how far open they are) to make it so she might have to spend an hour getting everything out. I often hear my cat nudging it about early in the morning.
It sounds like she may still have a kittenish temperament. Is it also possible that she's just bored? Does she have various toys to play with when you're asleep? Do you play long enough to exhaust her in the evening?
Don't use Fabreze. Feliway spray is the appropriate product for this issue. You can get it at Petco/Petsmart, but I suggest Amazon if you have Amazon Prime http://www.amazon.com/Comfort-Zone-Feliway-Spray-75/dp/B003E71E24/ref=sr_1_1?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1458236485&sr=1-1&keywords=feliway+spray
There are also plug ins that work very well. I would spray the tree and use a plug in next to it.
Yea i found this on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Hurricane-Wizard-Hair-Remover-BulbHead/dp/B072YSJTG3 might give it a try from the videos i've seen on Youtube it seems pretty good
Double sided tape is a great deterrent for scratching, they sell large strips at pet stores for this purpose. Tinfoil or orange scented cat safe deterrent may also work. My cat loves scratching her ripple rug https://www.amazon.com/SnugglyCat-Ripple-Rug-Interactive-Scratching/dp/B016H3T8EC which would be the closest in to a normal rug (its a bit pricey but it will last forever).
Yeah I get that. She was feral and is about 2 years old, so there's a good chance she didn't have a previous owner even briefly. That said, I use pretty high quality shampoo and soap, so it's unlikely someone else used it.
The one thing I realized last night was that my normal shampoo (https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B000IZ8KZ4) has mint in it, and mint is in the same family as catnip, which means some cats go a bit crazy over it. I tried not using it when I showered last night, and did not see the aggression. That said, I also didn't let her in the bathroom until I was fully dried off.
You can buy one of those things: https://www.amazon.com/Kitty-City-Premium-Scratching-Furniture/dp/B077MYF3SC/ref=sr_1_8?crid=M2D13Y8Q1VCV&keywords=cat+scratching+post&qid=1568376697&sprefix=cat+sc%2Caps%2C668&sr=8-8 . In any shape you like.
Some cats also need to be trained. If you see the cat is near the furniture and wants to scratch, take the cat ant put her paws on the scratching post. She will get used very quick. I recommend to change the toy once a year or sooner (depending of what type do you buy), because it will be deteriorating.
Edit: ate some letters
Other people have good ideas in this thread but also there is special cat-attractive litter box training litter that you should try. It works for re-training too. https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Elseys-Attract-Problem-Training/dp/B000PKY7YA
I got one of these: PetFusion about 3 years ago and my cat hasn't lost interest in it yet. In fact we got a kitten about a year and a half ago and he started using it immediately. Well worth the money and seems like it will last at least another 3-4 years.
the two toys my guy's love is Moody Pet Fling-Ama-String and The Giddy Kitty 5 Pack Assorted Cat Feather Toy
https://www.amazon.com/Comfort-Zone-Feliway-Spray-Calming/dp/B003E71E24
You should also be able to find it at Petsmart.
Please do update!
are you sure she is pooping in the box? if so, a Booda Dome Box might work and an automatic box should work. maybe any hooded box would work.
https://www.amazon.com/Booda-Dome-Cleanstep-Cat-Titanium/dp/B0002DH8L4
I bought these off Amazon for the same reason. My cat can't get under them so the carpet gets to live another day.
