Do you know why cats catch air when burying shit?
Why do cats catch the air when burying shit? Cats will grab the air before burying the shit, which is a natural reflection, which can help cats bury the shit deeper to avoid being discovered by other animals. Also, some cats don’t bury shit, just because they just don’t want to bury shit, because they think they are the boss of this family and don’t need to hide from anyone, so they swagger to go to the toilet and never bury shit afterwards to demonstrate their status. However, in addition to being too lazy to bury, there are some other physiological reasons, which need to be analyzed in detail, such as illness. The cat is too lazy, so he just pulls the air a few times after pooping, and then slips away!
Every cat has a preference for cat litter, and the cat litter that each cat likes may be different. Therefore, the cat shoveler must buy it suitable for it according to its cat's preferences. Your cat doesn't bury shit just because it doesn't like the cat litter now, and is protesting. It is especially important to note that you should not change the types of cat litter frequently. It also takes time for cats to adapt to different types of cat litter. Cats pay attention to the "feet feeling" when burying shit. If the foot feels bad, they will not bury them. Pulling the air a few times is just symbolically perfunctory. I think the cat litter box is too dirty and cats have a clean obsession and are particularly clean, so I also have my own requirements for the hygiene of the toilet. If the shoveler does not shovel the shovel in time, the cat will run away immediately after going to the toilet because of disgust, and never stay for one more second. Not to mention snatching the air, cats who dislike the cat litter box may just ignore it and just leave after pulling it. As long as you clean the cat litter box in time, this problem can be solved.
Not all cats will bury shit when they are born. Cats will not use cat litter to excrete when they are born. After a while, when they grow up, the mother of the cat will teach them to use cat litter and bury shit, and they will slowly learn it. Some cats have left their mothers since they were young and may not have time to learn this skill, so even if they can go to the toilet, they will not bury shit.
