So Galen has two behaviors involving the litterbox and I wonder if anyone else has had cats who do that, or know why he does it.
The first drives me bonkers. He doesn't just scrape in the box, he plays in it. He scrabbles all around and tosses litter everywhere, even after it was just cleaned. He'll spend like, five minutes doing this, thus getting litter and waste all over the room. Why does he do that? how can I make him stop? I got one litter box with the cover on it, but my other cat doesn't like it, he only uses uncovered boxes and he has urinary issues (struvite crystals) so I want to make it as easy as I can for him to pee.
The other thing he does is just silly, and I wonder if anyone has a cat who does this. After he uses the box, he proceeds to run madly all around the apartment, jump up on things, look around with big black eyes, and then dash off in another direction. Galen, I love you, but you're weird.

. Maia use to do more digging, but she grew out of it for the most part, still loves to make a mess! I have her litter in a cubby area I built with a curtain because of this....And yes she runs around like a maniac after she uses the kitty loo!
