So, Lt. Pants has always been fastidious about covering up his litterbox deposits. I moved about a month ago, and he's been in the new apartment since. He found his box right away, has been using it every time, and until a few days ago, covering up.
It started with the pee. I found some uncovered spots. Once, thought it was a fluke. Then it started happening more.
Then the poo. Twice now, he's left it uncovered. Sometimes he'll go into the box and kinda halfheartedly throw some litter over it, but not really bury it.
I haven't changed litter at all since I've had him. He never misses the box, has been eating, drinking, and going potty like normal, and seems normal in every other way. I called the vet just as a precaution, and she didn't seem worried. She said he may need a nail trim or he might be going through a phase... but I wanted to check in with you guys anyway.
Has anybody had this happen? Is it something I should be concerned about? He seems fine in every other way, and it's not really a problem, per se... just gross. Ha
