The Feline Urge To Bury

Cats, the sneaky little ninjas of the animal kingdom, have a covert operation going on in their litter boxes. But why the secret mission when it comes to their waste? Burying their deposits is an ancient strategy rooted in survival. In the wild, leaving waste exposed could alert predators or signal to potential prey that a cunning cat is nearby.
By burying waste, they keep a low profile. Moreover, it’s also a sign of being non-confrontational, rather than marking their territory with scents like some animals. So, the next time you see your feline furiously digging in the litter box, know they’re just executing their age-old stealth mode!
