My wife and I recently adopted 2 kittens (brother and sister) from a rescue centre. They are now 5 months old and despite initial shyness and typical kitten mischief everything has been fine up until now.
Our female kitten has decided that she doesn't want to cover up her poo anymore. Why? We don't know.
This has only started in the last few days. Their litter box is clean, sifted on a daily basis and fresh litter put in every 3 days. We use the same litter that we did from day 1 (Catsan Hygene - the one that absorbs the odours)
There has been nothing to scare them, no change in routine and they are eating the same food. Neither of them are ill and her brother is not picking on her (apart from the usual 9pm play fighting madness !)
My wife and I cant work out why she is not covering her mess up and wondered if anyone else could shed some light on this new strange behaviour.
