Calling Pointy People

[purpletigron]

We still have Pointy's litter tray in the back loft, and Boofy's in the front loft. We decided to start 'weaning' Pointy over from clay litter (which goes to landfill) to composted green waste (which goes on the 'wild' garden). So I sprinkled an inch-deep layer of clay over a tray of compost.

But Pointy has gone over to depositing his packages in the fully compost Boofy tray! Pointy still widdles in his own tray, but ... why?

More information: I've noticed that Pointy never burys his packages, neither in his own tray, nor in Boofy's. So is this all a territorial statement?

In any case, it doesn't look like he's going to be bothered by having to use compost for his litter!

Rocky never buries, but it's not territorial, he's just clueless (spends a few minutes pawing at the inside wall of the covered tray, with a look on his face as if to say, "I'm not doing it right, but I can't figure out why")

Pointy seems to scrabble like crazy (judging by how he shreds the paper that his tray rests upon), but nothing covers the parcels...
