Cat won't cover poop anymore

RobsAngel18 Sep 12, 2005 01:09 PM

My boyfriend and I have had this cat(Tiger) for about 5 months now. When we first got him he used the litterbox really good and always covered his poop. Now he has gotten bigger, but hes not even a year old yet and 9 times out of 10 he doesn't cover it anymore. We started him out using regular litter and now we are using Feline Pine and he has adjusted to it really well. Is it possible for his litterbox to be too small or is this a typical problem with cats? All I know is somedays coming into the house thats all you smell. It's so gross and if theres any ideas any of yall have please write and let me know. We're clueless!!!!!!!

When cats doen't cover their poop it usually means that they are trying to establish dominance. Is Tiger neuetered? If not he should be. You also might try some different types of kitty litter and different sized boxes to see if this helps.

Sadly, this might just be a quirk you have to live with.
