I just adopted a cat from the SPCA about a month and a half ago, and she is great. Genever's 1 and a half years old, and according to the vet last month, completely healthy. I've had cats before when i lived in Pennsylvania and this one is totally different than any cat I've ever had. We have a litterbox with a hood because my boyfriend was concerned with litter getting all over the place (she tracks it out anyway but we just vacuum more). Now, to the point- when she goes, whether it's #1 or #2, she is in there forever! Digging to China, then scratching the walls, then digging, scratching, etc. We've got a smallish apt. so the box is in the bedroom, and this behavior keeps us awake at night for a half hour at times! I don't know what to do because I'm glad she uses the box and I don't want to mess that up, but... give it a rest already, G! Would it screw her up if I moved the box to the living room at night? Anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks..
