Cat litter is an item that must be prepared by cat families, because it is not recommended for cats and people to share urinals, which can easily lead to cross-infection of bacteria. But sometimes parents will find that their cats suddenly don't use cat litter (estrus, revenge, bad habits, etc.), what is the reason?
First, each cat has different requirements for cat litter and cat toilets. Be alert to sensitive cats. If they can't find their own smell, they will not defecate in this way. This situation mainly occurs after the cat litter is completely replaced, so do not replace all the cat litter with new cat litter at one time, and keep some old cat litter on top of the new cat litter.
Second, some cat lovers take into account the problem of indoor air and use some cat litter with so-called fragrance. But these so-called scents will stimulate the cat's sensitive sense of smell, causing it to be disgusted or even unacceptable. For example, crystal sand has the most irritating odor. If it is used together with a closed cat toilet, most cats will be unbearable, and even choked out of the cat toilet and find another place to defecate.
Third, some cats are picky about the texture of cat litter, and some cat litter is not cleaned in time after clumping, which will also affect its feeling.
Fourth, in the rainy season, the indoor is relatively humid, and sand is easy to absorb moisture. Some wet conditions are not apparent on the surface. But the cat will find the problem as soon as it is planed, and it cannot be explained in human language.
Fifth, there are other unintentional causes. For example, inadvertently dropping some kind of odorous liquid into cat litter. Another example is that there are abnormal situations in the cat toilet: the position of the cat toilet is changed, there is water around it and it is unwilling to approach, there is some kind of disturbing sound (a situation that is difficult for humans to hear), some foreign objects appear, etc.
The cat mainly judges the problem according to the smell. Generally, it should be caused by the cat litter being contaminated with other smells, or the smell of the cat litter itself. It is recommended to change a cat litter and observe it first. If it is still the same, when you find that it eats cat litter, use other food or toys to lure it. Another possibility is that the food lacks nutrients or is caused by starvation. Concrete analysis of the specific situation, we should pay more attention to observation. For the choice of cat litter cat toilet, it is recommended to follow the principles of the cat's habits and characteristics.
