Hi everyone,
We have 2 wonderful cats, a 7 year old Himalayan boy and a 3 year old Tuxedo girl. We have always been ok with the odd habits of our Himi, Tao. He exhibits what I have joked at several times as dog-like behavior. We moved into a new house last summer from an apartment where the kitties could only go in a litter box. Now, we have the litter box still, but they have a big back yard to explore. We even made a couple of dirt areas near the bushes where they can do their business. The girl kitty, Sophie, always knows what to do and where, like all cats I have seen. But Tao, he always goes on the grass like a dog. I watch him go right by the dirt and go on the grass anyway. I'm just a little tired of scanning for landmines every time we barbeque. It is kind of funny watching him try in vain to bury his mess with grass, but I'm over it. :x
Any ideas as to what this might be the result of or what I can do to remedy this situation? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks for reading!
