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!

I'd be pretty sure it's territorial. Old Cat fails to bury her feces in her (segregated) litter box when relations with the kittens are especially stressful. The kittens tend to bury theirs, but there was the time, in the very early days, when that little bitch Jump looked straight at me as she took a dump onto the futon.

It's either incompentance or territoriality :-(
