I had a cat that peed on my bed for about a year, I tried everything(feliway, serene-um, etc)and I couldn’t fix it, I had to give it away
It was very painful for me, I’ve always been a pet person.That cat is ok and happy but now I would like to have another pet. I’m horrified of getting another cat, I’d die if it start peeing as the one I had before.
A dog would be a ‘safer’ choice?
New pet after one that used to pee on my bed?

Getting The Best Dog Bed
If you own a dog, especially an older one, getting a good dog bed is a really great gift to give your beloved pet. The need a good place to rest and sleep just like us. After all, you wouldn't want to bed down in an uncomfortable mattress or sleep on a hard surface all night.
Sleeping on the floor or even on a bad or uneven bed isn't the best thing for a dog to do. As they get older it becomes even more important that they have a really good dog bed to sleep in.
The other reason to get a dog bed is, of course, to keep them off of yours or off of the best couch in the house. If you don't want them all over your furniture, get them a comfortable bed of their own that they will love and use for a long time.
From the simplest dog beds to the more elaborate types, there are many to choose from. Some are more or less like large bean bags, some are donuts or round pet beds. There are also bolster dog beds, which have sort of a pillow going all around the outer edge of the bed. Dogs like to use this as a pillow for their head while they sleep. Then there is the orthopedic dog bed and memory foam beds, which are among the best you can get.
There are also outdoor dog beds which are made for outdoor areas like the back porch and there are also heated dog beds. These are great for dogs, especially during the cold winter months. Even when you have the heat in the house cranked up, the floor can sometimes stay cold and it's not good for your dogs bones and joints. A heated dog bed will keep your canine pal comfy and warm the whole time like a warm blanket.
Another option you may want to look into is getting a waterproof dog bed. We have all taken our dog out for a walk when it is raining and wet outside. Whether we want to or not, we have to go out on those miserable days when the rain is pouring and we both get soaked. After a good towel dry, dogs still have some moisture left on their coat and skin. The nice part about a waterproof dog bed is that your dog can lay on this type of pet bed without getting it soaked on the inside where the water stays put. These beds are made for this so they do not get ruined every time your water soaked pooch rests on them. For those dogs that prefer to stay out on the porch or outside near their kennel or dog house, they are much happier on a waterproof bed than a conventional one that soaks up the water. It's not only a comfortable resting spot for sleeping and lying down, but it will last longer too.
Not all dog beds are the same just as not all dogs age the same. When your dog gets older, he or she will most likely develop the same types of aches and pains due to joint problems that humans do. When your dog starts to slow down due to joint pain, inflammation and arthritis, the best thing you can do is to look into getting them a memory foam dog bed.
As soon as your are aware that you dog is suffering from orthopedic issues, the floor is simply not a good place for them to sleep. Even a conventional dog bed just will not do. The even balance of a dog's weight is more important at this stage of their life than at any time before. A bumpy or uneven bed is not good for the existing joint pain and can actually worsen the dog's problems over time.

a dog would be ‘safer’ in the fact that he probably wouldn’t pee on your bed. however, during his life, he will poop in your closet, and eat your most expensive pair of shoes and vomit on your new carpet. dogs are a joy, but very high mantainence compared to cats.
Also, i could be wrong, but i’m willing to bet if you still have the same matress, the hint of cat pee is still inside and will entice a new kitty to mark his territory.

a dog is friendly, but if you get a puppy and its not trained to use the bathroom, then you might have a problem, you could always look at your local animal shelter and see if they have the dog, or cat thats right for you, i know i am also an animal person, so i would go to an animal shelter and see what they have and you even get to interact with them, if you like them, then take them home, and poof, new animal love.

dogs has to be trained so they peee outside
October 31st, 2009 - 3:53 pm
if you get another pet and it smells the pee from the first one it too will pee there. a dog is easier to train. i have found that if a cat doesn’t feel like being trained it just simply won’t be

Shop around. Cats are very different.

No, don’t get a dog if you’re used to a cat. Dogs take much more time and effort, and expense, to own, and you can’t always control them anyway. And it’s much more aggravation to have a dog, too. Get rid of the old bed, and get a new cat.

I think your original cat had some serious issues. Pets are alot like people, they have emotions and feelings and much like children they are unable to express their emotions and often act them out in negative ways. Or perhaps there was something physically wrong with him/her.
As far as a new pet…do you still continue to use the old mattress? The scent of the old cat might be upsetting to a new cat and cause the same problem (however ALL cats are different this doesn’t mean a new cat WILL do the same thing)
If you’ve gotten a new mattress i doubt highly that you will have the same problem. If for some reason you do, you need to consider whats going on in your household that could be causing the problem
Hope this helps!

Hm… I guess you could teach it. I would advise a pad or thick newpaper.( Or several newspapers) Teach the dog to go outside.
Try to teach it to be potty trained. Read a book about dog caring.
I would advise you to get a girl so that it wouldn’t mark territory and now and then.
