So, in recent times (maybe the last 2-3 months?) our 8 month old poops in the litter box, but almost always gets the poop on the inside wall of the box... it's getting pretty bad as we switched to pine pellets and had to downsize to a smaller box.. it occurred in an extra large litter box too though.
Anybody have any ideas on things I can do to encourage a different pooping strategy for this cat? She is very much a location-based pottier - she pees in the front of the box, and poops in the back, just gets the poo all on the side in the process?
Alternatively, any products to make this easier to deal with? (not sure what that'd be though?)
It's just a pain to have to watch for it and go clean it asap before it gets even harder to clean / the smell permeates the house much faster / etc. It does feel unhygienic too.
TIA!
