Not sure why this would be so controversial. This is always worth looking into as there can be so many different causes, most of them easy to fix or deal with. Glad you were able to figure it out.
We have an older cat who frequently pees outside the litter box. It took a while to figure out, but the ultimate cause was constipation. He's in pain, so he can't always squat in the box. He stands on the edges of the box with rear hanging outside, then he pees. Not fun. We give him Metamucil twice a day in wet food now and it helps a lot. And we keep those doggy training pads under the litter box and a plastic sheet under that. Makes for easy cleanup when he does pee outside the box.
I will have to remember this one. We had that issue with another cat a few years ago. She peed in the litter box but pooped on the floor next to it. She ended up having a stroke and we put her to sleep.
