When you've finished using your litterbox do you scratch the top, the side and the entrance? :confused:

Drives me nuts. :rolleyes:
Two pics ... just because. :D
One of the increasingly rare occasions she's been seen sleeping somewhere other than in her new carrier.

Taz does the same thing. When I moved in with the boyfriend I demanded that the cat box NOT be in the bedroom. When I was living with my parents it had to be in my room and he would drive me nuts digging to China. I would have to tell him to STOP!!!
I had to laugh when he stepped out of the box. He looks too big to even fit in there. Sorry, it was funny.
(I guess I just miss my big guy)
Ebby looks so cute all curled up napping. :)
Of all the Found Hotel Cats , the Kitten Trio the Sensational Scrappy 2 , Miquelito the Little Orange Lion , and Pouncierge the Precious go through this ritual too.
:eek::eek::eek:
Scrape Scrape Scrape Scrape Scrape Scrape Scrape Scrape Scrape Etc!!!
:eek::eek::eek:
Like claw nails on a blackbord and they throw the litter out on the floor and the Older Cats think that thats the box!!!
But they are My Cats and I LOVE THEM.
:love::love::love::love:
Be careful what you ask for......Edwina, to announce her position as TOP CAT does not bury...at all.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
my old cat Montego did the scratch thing too. Then he'd look at me like "peee-ewww..... would you touch that, either?":p
Ah, but she is not burying when she does that ... how can I explain ... she does what ever she needs to do, digs around and part buries her doings then she paws the roof, the sides and the entrance of the box, it's kind of weird. Before she had a covered box, or if I leave the top off, the wallpaper and/or whatever is closest gets scratched to pieces.

Cleaning out the litter between the toes.:D
Yes! I cannot leave anything near the door of the box or he will pull it in. That helped me keep my room clean when I lived at home. :p LOL He'll also do this with his food, but now there's nothing near his food for him to cover it with. And he scratches around where he pukes too. Sometimes that's the only way I know he threw up because I can't see the clear liquid on the hardwood floor all the time.Quote:

My Pidgelet does that, too. It used to make my RB Peeka furious and she'd wait for Pidge to come out of the litterbox and then she'd pounce on her. I've never figured out why Pidge does that but at least now I know that she's not the only one. :confused:
oh i have one of those kitties too, my sweet Lexie, as we say i am sure she is digging all the way to China, that is a long way from where i live lol, and yes it is always about 5 or 6am in the morning in our room, actually i have trained her not to scratch at all when i am present, she is getting the message, just pees and runs, and i give her so much praise, and she does it quite often now , even sometimes when i am not present.
But for the upstairs litter box in the mornings, well that is a different story, i think she is hungry and telling us to get up and feed her, so she makes a big deal out of it, kitties don't you just love them at 5 in the morning lol.:D
Both my boys do this as well. Most mornings I wake up with all four bathroom rugs pilled by the litterbox entrance. :rolleyes: Hobbes is the worst about digging IN the litter to China. He just digs and digs. I go in there and say Good Hobbes..Good boy Hobbie and then he gets the idea and leaves. :p All that rug digging and my bathroom is still like Pebble Beach most days! Sand everywhere! You'd think all that scratching on the rugs would keep wee feetsies litter free!

It's our neurotic kitties;)
Here the litterbox is not covered as Filou won't accept it (when it was covered, Tigris cornered him in the box and then Filou had to go and look for other places :rolleyes:). Tigris does an archeological dig with litter all over the bathroom floor and Filou... just scratches the floor outside the box so he doesn't get his dainty pawsies dirty:p
Peppito: "Yes, I do! And if, occasionnaly, there is no roof, I scratch the wall next to the litter" :)
Jasmine: "No, never! When I have done my stuff, I quicky jump out of the box and I run far away from it. He-he, this way nobody know who has made the smelly biscuit!" :rolleyes:
