Pooping out the box
I have two male cats, they are 1 year old. One of them has always been keeping us on toes with his toilet habits. He once pooed and peed on the mat right outside the litter box it was a stainless steel box, the other one just passed by him and did his business inside the box. I changed the mats and it’s been 3-4 weeks and we have moved to automatic litter box and they had been fine with using it but today I woke up to poo behind the litter box and it’s the same kitty he first went into the litter box and then came out and did it on the floor. What should I do?
I feel if it was something wrong with the litter box or litter the other one would be doing the same. I want to ask the vet but this one is very scared of the vet whenever the doc is here for the visit he hides under the toughest of spots to reach him and doesnt come out unless he is sure the vet left.
