My cat is behaving strangely

by Danielle

For the past two days, I've noticed that one of my cats is behaving very strange. He is constantly going into the litter boxes at the house and just sits there. He is not there to go to the bathroom. He just sits there and when you call him, he doesn't respond like he is in deep thought. Is that something I should worry about?

This is strange. I wonder if your cat is constipated and is going to the litter tray but not able to go. Does he stain at all?

The other option is that he simply like the feel of sitting on nthe gravel and this place makes him feel secure, because it is his place and smells of him.

I wouldn't worry about this as long as he is not constipated or has a urinary infection. Keep an eye out to see if he is still going to the toilet as normal.
