I'm having an issue with Casey that I hope can be solved. Since bringing him home, when he uses the litterbox, he'll get in, dig his hole, do his business, and then bury it. Only he then doesn't stop there. He wipes his front paws on whatever is available (side of litterbox or the box enclosure, trash can next to litter box, wall, etc.). He then turns around and starts digging and stomping away all over in the litterbox, even putting his feet into the deposit(s) he just made, flinging his and Chessie's deposits all over. He then starts the wiping thing again, turns around, and digs even more. That'll repeat a few times. He'll then get out and shake the pieces of his fresh deposits off his feet, which splatters all over in the bathrooms.



While Chessie might occasionally track something out of the litterboxes, he goes in, does his business, buries it, and then gets out.



Since the day I got Chessie, I've had a litterbox in both the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms, and since Casey's come on board, both cats have been using both litterboxes.



Is Casey's behavior normal? Is there any way to get him to do like Chessie and not go through his messy routine all the time?
