Two situations that just make me wonder...

1)I have a question regarding a "habit" of Pinot's, which I shared with a coworker/friend and her Eddie does it as well; we're both just curious what it could possibly mean. I know it's not uncommon.

Pinot: on three very smooth surfaces (the 'fridge door, the surface of the side of the island in the kitchen, and our glass shower door when I'm in it), she will just start incessantly pawing for no reason. It's not going to get her anywhere; why is she doing that?

Eddie (friend's kitty): does the same thing at night on the window by Jen's bed...why?

2)Back to Pinot...right after I change her box, she has to pee in it (normal), BUT, as she's in the process, her butt raises up and she shoots straight out! What's that about??

No concerns, just curious....
