Thread: Mischa The Quiet Kitten

she is such s sweetie! she looks like a baby teddy bear on your avatar, Dot! :-D
Neevie does the scraping the floor thing too - all my cats have done it, not always systematically - I rekon it's instinct, in the wild they might want to keep some for later by burrying it? or being very clean creatures they bury to keep it from stinking up nature when it rots... (I'd go for the first option though)
the once over when you change her litter however, I haven't seen that before... I know that cats have their pheromones glands at the root of their claws and their whiskers, that's why they scratch their post and rub their faces against anything and anyone they like... may be Misha is making extra sure it's her litter and noone elses?

My boys do this aswell nice clean wood pellets in there tray then before i put it back into place they come along and scrap it all over the show lol
also they have biscuits in the top of a cat tree by our fish tank once they have a lil nibble they will then scrap the top of the fish tank now when they were little i used to think they needed the loo so would hot foot them to the litter tray lol but they just do it all the time
another one is the water bowl OMG i have a large metal water bowl as i have 2 dallys and 4 cats drinking from it well the MC brothers are lil horrors they will scrap out the water like they scrap at there litter water everywere lol

What a lovely young lady you have there ! Frazer doesnt give the litter tray the once over, but he does scrap like you said with his food, just thought he was trying to cover it so Teddy couldnt get it !!! lol

Thanks for that she really is a sweetie...and I think we might both use the same Cattery....did John look after Neevie at home? I think you may have seen Mischa then.

Yeah....the water thing...even though she was quite small compared to some of her water bowls (as you will know once full they are quite heavy, especially the ceramic ones...but Mischa used to manage to tip the water all over the floor, my daughter did not believe it until she managed to catch her doing it one day lol. I think she may be just a tad house proud...like me always finding some cleaning..thank you for your reply.

Hahaha....yeah if I did have another maybe I would think that too, thank you for your reply.

YES! Poor John is the one that had to put up with her crazy! oh such a small world! I've actually met Mischa around Christmas while she was there, and so good and so quiet she put my Monster to shame
John will be looking after Neevie at home again in August. He's actually coming this week end to see if she'll behave this time ;-)

I never had them re arrange the litter but they always like to come and take a big ol stinky poo in the clean litter box, drove me crazy! Miss Ginger is doing so well with her potty training, I may well be litter free in the next few months!!!! I got my paws crossed ;)

Pyggie likes to rearrange the clean litter too. He also likes to meow very loudly whilst rearranging. We have come to the conclusion that he is instructing us on the proper litter distribution method. It doesn't seem to be a negative thing, he is just particular. Maybe you are right, and our Coons are just very house proud.
