I don't wander over here to often (one of those cat general people)...

Sometimes I have found presents when the box was to small for the cat. I had one that was so big that she missed the box every time.

Also if it is a small cat, it may have trouble getting into a large box.

Also, with long haired cats, I have found that sometimes their "presents" get stuck in their fur and fall off (or is pulled off by the cat) in odd places. Have to clip fur if that is the case and they sure don't like you messing around back there with scissors!

Sometimes they do not like the kind of litter you get and that is how they let you know their displeasure!

I have a handicapped girl, Amy and she sometimes just can not get into the box so she deposites her presents in front of the one she likes to use.. Solution to that, I got her a puppy litter box.

Also, I would suggest if it is covered, uncover it! If it isn't covered, cover it.. She is trying to tell you something and it will be trial and error until you figure out what it is she is trying to tell you.


I understand the point that she only does # 2 outside the box, my guess is something spooked her when she was in there doing her # 2 of the day.
