Be so careful about letting your cat outside. The news from Denver & Utah is heartbreaking and the sick sadistic animal abusers out there will only be inspired by those events.
I too had problems with my cat and his litter box. In his case it turned out that he did not like the scent added to the litter. Even though I tried 3 different kinds of "unscented" clumping litter, they still had a mild fragrance added. The Pet Gold Plus from PetCo is completely scent free and this has cured him of his problem. I realize your situation is a bit different but I received plenty of help from:
www.catsinternational.org
They are a non-profit organization that is dedicated to helping cat owners with any behavioral problems. They are very helpful, knowledgeable and willing to give you all the advice you need.
Is this problem only with defication or is she also not urinating in the box? My cat had no problem urinating in the box but you could tell he definitely did not like the box for deficating. Sometimes he used it but sometimes not.
Check out the link above and see if they can help as well.
