Now, this is something I've always wanted to know about, but was afraid to ask due to possibly looking foolish. But I've never had a cat that did this before, and neither did anyone I know offline... and Luci's done it ever since he was little.
When Luci uses the litterbox, he goes just like normal.
But then he spends forever and a day in there scratching not only the litter, but the box, the wall, the pipe above him, by the toilet, at the wastebasket... sometimes he's left the box, only to go up to something in the vicinity that was out of reach, and keep scratching at it like he's still doing this in the box.
And then, sometimes after he's done with that, he seems to actually try kicking as much litter out of the box as possible. Like it's some sort of deranged cat game, to him. I swear I can go in there at the end of the day and there's this huge pile of it somewhere by the box. I've watched him and sometimes it looks like he might be doing it on purpose?
I change it proper, and it's big enough for him, and he's healthy, and he does it no matter what kind or brand I put in, and I've tried varying the amount you're supposed to put in the box. What on EARTH is that boy up to? Is there some sort of kitty OCD I don't know about, or is he just weird?
