My kitties, thou art so strange.

So.  Scooping the litterboxes today, I discovered something very strange. 

Apparently they've decided the one with no lid is the pee box and the one with the cover is the poop box. 

What I wonder is how they worked this out between them.

Oh, it's a little bit complicated...

See, I used to have no box, because my two cats were always going outside whenever they wanted. Then Misia died and I got 2 new cats and put one box downstairs and one upstairs, because I had to close the cat door.
One of them, Max, got used to living here already after 3 days, but the other one was feral and escaped after 4 weeks :-(

So I opened the door again.

Then I got 2 other cats a month ago: one pretty young and - again - one feral. The door closed again, I bought another box and put out all three of them (all three open). Until then there was no difference.
Then I put lid on one litterbox and since then I didn't notice any pee in it. And now that I brought home two feral babies of the feral cat last weekend, I bought another box yesterday and also a different sort of litter.

In the new one is only pee....

LOL

I have no idea how they use them - which one goes where etc.

Cats are simply wondrous... :-D
