I have a kitten that's almost fully grown about 10 months old and she doesn't bury her poop. We've tried everything, from scooping her paw to partially cover it, different litter and different litter boxes. I've looked online for solutions but nothing works. All she does is do her thing in the box and scratch about 6 times on the walls of the box (the one she has now is enclosed but before that we had an open litter box that was 3 times her size when we first got her) sniffs it, does it again, sniffs and then walks out. I'm on top of it every single time to show her to bury it, sometimes its partially covered and I praise her on a good job but the next time she doesn't do it. We also have another cat that's 3 and a half years old and we have no problems with him. We have separate litter boxes for the two of them.
She's an adopted cat we got her from the shelter and she was born into a home that had 10 other cats. She was about 5 months old when we got her. As far as I know the cats were taken care of but the quantity was overwhelming.
