Moving cats litter tray ?

Hi All

Thanks for any help in advance.

I have a senior kitty aged around 17-18. She has had some bad bad health issues (serious heart murmur/separation anxiety/high blood pressure) and to cut to the chase, it's a miracle she is still with me.

Anyway, through her last episode (when she n early died), she started to pee in my living room. She has always been good about the litter tray which was kept in the kitchen. She basically changed where she went to the loo so i've had no choice but to move her litter tray to the living room. She now has three litter trays as she is particularly fussy :o

I was wondering how hard it would be to move her litter trays to the bathroom? I've had work done on my living room so currently it is a concrete floor - so I can clean the pee easily. I am hoping to get some flooring down soon so ideally i want her pee out of the living room altogether. She won't loo outside, she will come inside to use the tray.:o

So after a lot of rambling, has anyone any advice on how to do this or input/suggestions??:D

    Maybe move the trays by a few inches every day until you get them to the bathroom and hope that she doesn't notice?

    My bathroom is upstairs so i don't think that would be practical if that makes sense. Thanks for the idea though :)

    Ah, that would probably make things a bit difficult... ok, so how about you put 1 of her trays in the bathroom and for the time being leave the other 2 in the living room. Make a point of showing her where that tray now is, maybe she'll decide by herself that it's better there anyway.

    It might be with her health and age she can't always make it upstairs. Very reluctantly I have a tray in the front hall ATM. Its no comfort that it won't be there always...as it not being here means the cat won't be :( But I do hate it there...
