Some cats make a bigger deal of this than others. Some cats scratch the litter but don't have good aim. Some cats just scratch the side of the box, which does nothing to cover the poop. It's all normal.

It's totally normal everyone of my cats do not cover it up.See we have a litter box that has a top on it and they have a habit of scratching the top of the litter box instead of the litter...

well, first of all does the litter box need to be changed? cuz my cats do that if the box is full and they can't cover it. and sometimes they just don't want to cover it. so it should be fine, but if it really concerns you, you can ask a vet.

well my cat does that it might be because he/she has a full litter box or there is too much litter in there keep the litter height about half way at all times and be sure to clean it every day. So my answer is YES!!Hope I helped you in some way

Yes. Some cats cover it up others do not. The cats that don't expect you to scoop it up as soon as he is done. Get one of those automatic litter boxes that scoop it up as soon as he is done. It's worth the money.

Most cats will cover their stools -- but I had one that didn't. He went through the motions -- but outside the littler box. Then he would look at his stools and wonder why they weren't covered yet.
Fortunately, I had two cats and the other one would come in and cover them up for him.

Sounds like the cat is training you to cover it for her.

I think you mean feces, and yes, it is perfectly normal. Some cats will cover up their waste, some don't.
