I find this strange.. and I hope some of you have the same experience.
Both of my cats are healthy, per recent vet checkup. Nothing amiss with them or the household.
They share one box that I clean twice a day. They've never had any issues with sharing. They respect each other when one is in the box. Even if I forget to clean or out overnight and don't get to clean for 2 days, I never find accidents when the box is full.
What I find odd.. is that I find is a tiny piece of poop somewhere in my home..no where near the box. It's a tiny piece, and the cats usually poop a lot more than that. By the time I find it, it's dried up. Yesterday was the 3rd time in about 6 months I've found this.. maybe about a month or so apart, so I know it's not health related or it'd happen a lot more if it was a health or behavioral related accident.
It's almost like they took the poop from the box and planted it somewhere else. I could've sworn I saw litter on yesterday's surprise, but I didn't inspect close enough to confirm it, i just wanted to get it out of my kitchen! I am actually wondering if the cats are playing with it? that's what I feel like is happening.
Anyone else ever come across random piece of poop somewhere in the house that just does not make sense? Help me give ideas why I am finding poop placed at random like this? Or is it actually a poopy-looking hairball that I am cleaning up??
