Shovelers who have cats have more or less had the experience that just after cleaning the cat litter, the cat has to jump in and make a poop. Veterinarian Xiaoming’s studio friend is described this way, every morning, when shoveling cat litter, they will regularly run over a blue cat, cat litter just shoveled; the blue cat will jump in to leave a pile of poop and then bury to leave almost every day.


Although not all cats will have this habit, this small action can hide a lot of meowing stars’ minds, maybe the following 3 reasons:

1. The cat’s sense of territory


Cats are very sensitive to environmental factors; there was a 16-year-old cat in Canada just because the dog passed by the door of its yard, it would not hesitate to fight with the dog; the last cat also overcame seven Pitbulls, it is because it feels that its territory has been violated, I have to say that the cat is also a tough role ah.
The owner’s behavior of cleaning up the cat litter will also make the cat feel that it is invading its territory, so the cat can’t wait to leave its smell or feces in this territory. Sometimes, during the owner’s cleanup, the cat can’t resist jumping in to use the fresh litter box, marking the scope of their territory to prevent other cats from invading.

2. Los gatos tienen un fetiche por la limpieza


Los gatos son animales limpios por naturaleza, hasta el punto de ser un poco maniáticos de la limpieza. Si la caja de arena del gato ya está sucia, por ejemplo con mucho olor y demasiados excrementos, hará que el gato se sienta incapaz de bajar y siga conteniéndose para no defecar. Cuando el propietario limpie la caja de arena, el gato podrá entrar y defecar de forma natural.

3. La curiosidad del gato


The cat’s curiosity is also very heavy; the owner of the activities can not help but want to participate; when you see the owner with a small shovel litter, the cat may be curious about what the owner is doing, especially some kittens will have been staring at the owner to see when the owner cleaned up will immediately jump in to see how the situation inside.

But sometimes, there is an opposite situation where a cat doesn’t like to defecate in the litter box, and it could be for the following reasons:

  1. 1. Reacción de estrés de los gatos
    There are many stress reactions in cats, such as loud scares, environmental changes, etc., which will cause cats to change their mood and behavior. They will change their eating habits, defecation habits, appetite loss, vomiting, aggressive behavior, and so on.
    2. Enfermedades fisiológicas o psicológicas de los gatos
    Physiological: Cats suffering from gastrointestinal diseases, cystitis, constipation, and other diseases may defecate anywhere.
    Psicológicos: la frialdad prolongada del propietario hacia el gato, los regaños, los nuevos miembros de la familia, etc., harán que el gato sufra ansiedad y defeque.
    3. La caja de arena del gato no se sustituye a tiempo
    El propietario no limpia la arena para gatos a tiempo, o la caja de arena para gatos está colocada en un lugar abarrotado y ruidoso, lo que hará que el gato no quiera hacer sus necesidades en la caja de arena para gatos.
  2. 4. Los gatos no se adaptan a la arena para gatos
    It may be that the cat does not like the smell and texture of the cat litter and will refuse to go to the toilet. Owners should also pay attention when changing the cat to a new litter, gradually mixing the old litter together to replace it. Still, it is recommended that you do not change the litter easily and don’t change it if you are used to one kind. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the cat to adapt.
  1. Veterinarian Xiaoming suggests that if you have several cats, you should prepare a corresponding number of litter boxes for them (or one more), as cats don’t like other cats to use their litter boxes.

  2. Well, the above is about some of the secrets of the cat toilet; the most important thing for cats is to eat and defecate; owners usually have to do a good job of disinfecting and sterilizing cat living utensils. Oh, nothing to do while the sun is good to bask in the cat’s nest is also a good choice!
