I’m not saying I agree with them, but I think they’re saying that for this particular symptom to manifest, the problem has existed, unchecked, for quite a while, and that’s why their cat owner/parenting skills might be questionable.
I can only really speak with any confidence on the parenting side of things, and I can tell you that peeing on the ground is a perfectly normal occurrence for a kid who’s undergoing potty training. As for cats, what I’ve gathered through osmosis from other cat owners is that the moment something happens to their litter box, they’ll stop using it. There’s probably other problems that would have earlier warning signs, but I would expect many to have no earlier signs than peeing in random places.
There’s a pretty good chunk of time when cleaning up your kid’s pee without losing your cool is all the situation calls for. Could be a baby who isn’t even aware they’re peeing but needs to air out their diaper area to prevent a rash. Or a toddler you’re attempting to potty train. One of the most common potty training methods involves them just being naked and you trying to get them to the potty whenever you notice them peeing until they get the idea. And you doing anything other than being chill about it is gonna cause anxiety around them learning this new skill.
One of the main reasons a cat might pee outside their litter box is a disrupted routine. I can’t imagine how that might happen if you have a newly mobile baby. Must be because this person is a bad parent and cat owner.
That is cool if you want to be a cleaning lady for some public toilets, but parenting is a bit more than that.
Yeah, parenting is a lot more than just cleaning up pee. No one said it wasn’t. It also includes cleaning up pee. I don’t see what you’re getting at.
Cats do not just pee in random areas for no reason. And them having a cat & kid do this very much indicates issues in regards to them.
Okay? So you handle the problem then. I don’t understand why you think that the existence of a problem means someone can’t handle it.
The urinating is not a problem, it’s a symptom.

That would be a fair point to make if it applied.

I guess you’re a bot or some sort of NPC. Farewell.
