kitty is stress peeing

hello! my kitty is 10 months and when i got her initially she immediateky knew how to use the litter tray and would only go there (maybe her momma showed her)

however recently shes been peeing in random places, specifically the front door curtains and the front room floor - i brought her to the vet to check if it was a UTI but the vets said she was okay… they said she might be stressed about any outdoor cats

my entire street is filled with cat owners theres no dogs, but theyre all outdoor cats. one night she snuck out and got into a fight with the outdoor cat across the street and she hasnt tried to sneak out since but from then shes been peeing under my bed and at the front door etc

my mum is not happy, especially since i recently moved back home with my kitty and my mum does not like cats

what do i do? how do i comfort her or get her to stop? i tried disciplining her but i dont think its working. how dhpuld i discipline her? i show her where she peed then clap my hands loud and put her in a different room/her litter tray

any advice?

kitten doesnt sleep on me anymore

hi!
i moved out of my parents house and got a kitty cat - i had a job where i worked from home so got to spend every day all day with her

she usually slept on my chest while i worked on my computer or curled up behind the laptop on my thighs, or if i was just sitting down she’d climb on me and start kneeding

she loved a certain oodie i have, and would always lie on me when i wore it

i lost my job and had to move back into my parents (too much kitten time not enough working lmao) and now my parents feed her in the mornings before work while i sleep in

i got a new job and have to be away from my kitty four or five days a week, but try to spend as much time with her when im home and before i go

shes taken a shine to my 14 year old sister, but shes stopped sleeping on my chest. she doesnt even really sleep in the same room as me anymore at night times (usually she will during the day)

now she still follows me room to room and meows loads when im home from work and runs to see me, and i still feed her dinner, im just wondering why she isnt as cuddly with me anymore?

has she picked my sister as her owner now? she sleeps in her room sometimes, im just worried that maybe ive done something to break our bond as i dont understand why she isnt all cuddly anymore
