Ok so my cat refuses to cover her poop after she goes i have no clue why shes just lazy or is there something else going on shes been doing this since she was a baby
My Ruby does the exact same thing.She scratches the cat box but doesnt cover it
Be careful of things like that. They often include fragrances or other chemicals that could turn your cat off using it. I like using baking soda. It works just as well and it doesn't annoy my cat's delicate sense of smell. You may want to look at the litter you are using as well. I like World's Best Cat Litter. I think it is wheat-based. It clumps well, it's very absorbent, and even traps odors better than clay. But clay is good too. Whatever you get, think simple, low dust, and unscented. Your cats' noses and lungs are far more sensitive than yours.I went and bought deodorizing kitty litter hoping that may help is their reason why they dont
I read once that it is a dominance issue and a cat who feels as if they are at the top of the food chain does not cover their poop.
It is true that more dominant cats don't cover their poop but there could be another reason.Some cats just don’t cover. Maybe their mom never showed them how or maybe somehow they are missing the instinct.
