Experts Explain the Strange Behavior of Cats When Visiting the Toilet: Just Leave Your Pet Alone
What miracles cats do after visiting the toilet. But the main thing that worries owners is the cat's habit of tidying up the litter box.
They can bury something for a long time and persistently, as if it were not a tray, but a sandbox.
According to experts from BBC Science Focus, the animal's desire to tidy up its toilet is purely instinctual.
The pet will long and stubbornly pretend that it is burying traces of its presence, even if there is absolutely nothing to bury there with.
Genes force even those cats that live in apartments and have no intention of going outside to relieve themselves to do so.
Therefore, the cat's habit of burying excrement (or the idea that they are burying it) should be considered an instinct.
It plays a self-soothing role, since the animal believes that enemies can find it by its smell.
The habit of burying feces is also associated with the prevention of bacteria and infections, which, according to scientists, is also of concern to cats.
Therefore, a person can only put up with the strange behavior of the pet and let him fully enjoy the process.
