This is a tough one. I had this problem with only one cat in my life and that was Iggy.
Normally this behavior is due to marking territory and this is common in male and female cats. It was pretty bad with Iggy too. He'd crap in the bed, between the covers, on top of them etc. He'd pee too and the last straw was on my head and pillow! It was awful. I couldn't figure out why this was happening.
I like to allow my animals to grow to at least one year old before I have them spayed or neutered and some vets will agree and some will say it's not necessary but I firmly believe that they need all their hormones intact to grow to their proper healthy potential. But, when this shit started with Iggy, I took him directly to the vet and had him neutered. This weird behavior stopped immediately.
If they are not 'fixed' yet, might as well get it done if they're old enough. If they are, you'll need to keep a careful eye as to who this is and what they do before they go to pee. Do they fluff? Dig as if in the box? Does your blanket feel "pebbly" like litter? What does it smell like? Anything can trigger a cat to do this but since I've only encountered this one time out of 40+ cats in my life, I think it was some kind of puberty thing.
I have no problem with Iggy now - 10 years later and all the cats sleep on the bed and wherever else they please.
