two of my three cats for some reason run around the house like crazy after using the litter box. it's like they are running away from their own stink they just made. anyone else seen this? or know some kind of reason for it?

Hi there...oddly enough so many cats do this perhaps as if they are saying "I've lightened the load" or "phew! I'm outta here this box is stinky!" It's cute nonetheless.

Well, one time my cat swallowed a string and when he went potty the turd came out but was attached to the string that was still partly inside my cats butt. So my cat was running from his turd that was chasing him because it was stuck on the string. It was quite hilarious actually. But I'm sure that is not what is going on with your cats because you would have obviously noticed this. So I dont know why your cats would be doing this unless they just feel very excited because they just relieved themselves. I just thought I would share my story about my cat running from his turd. LOL!!!

Don't really know the reason, but my cats do the same thing. Use the potty, jump out of the litterbox, litter flies everywhere and run like crazy!!! Yes, I think they're trying to get away from their own stink, because it does stink!!!

Put her on a type of extendable leashes. Never allow a puppy out on its possess that you simply can not be one hundred% definite you'll manipulate. The WORST factor you'll do whilst you trap her is to punish her --- she thinks you're punishing her for purchasing stuck through you! She does not recognize you're punishing her for strolling away, on the grounds that puppies have very constrained brief-time period reminiscence. Also, under no circumstances name a puppy to you simply to punish it. If it does come to you, it's going to believe it is being punished for coming whilst referred to as. It may not come to you after that! Sounds like you want a few well elementary coaching approaches. I've proficient 3 puppies (under no circumstances proficient a puppy earlier than) utilising a publication referred to as "The Art of Raising a Puppy." It's the high-quality publication ever, on the grounds that it teaches you ways the puppy's brain works, so you can recognize why special coaching approaches paintings or do not paintings (like punishing the puppy whilst you trap it).

My oldest cat does this, we've decided that he feels 20 pounds lighter after taking a dump in the box, so he's just celebrating.

Oh good, my cats aren't the only wacko's! I guess they just feel so much better after emptying themselves out that they decide to do a victory lap!

My old cat that passed on would do that too, I thought it was pretty funny. None of my other cats have ever done that.
