(Not a Cat Question?)

I adopted a cat who is overweight - his litter box use was fine at first (altho his back end would get messy) but now he has started defecating on the floor 2 feet from the litter box...he is my 2nd cat but they both seem to get along okay. i have 3 floors and a litter box on all 3 - what should i do to get him to use the box (he does urinate in the box). thanks! Patty
