If they do not use the litter box…

Unfortunately, this behavior does not indicate that your cat is attached to you, but it can show that something is wrong with your cat. Maybe your cat has a medical problem, such as urinary tract infection, and in this case, you should talk with your veterinarian. Your cat can be stressed as well when it does not use the litter box, so try not to punish it. They will use the litter box again when you solve the problem, so d not worry about that. 

“Either there is a problem with the latrine site (litter tray area), the cat is feeling stressed, or both,” said Cummings. “So as much as it sucks for us, it’s probably a bigger problem for the cat.”

“They use this technique to send a message to other animals that they own their property and not to disturb,” she said. “This can be seen as a way of showing affection as the cat feels secure in their household and with their owners.”

  1. My cat killed a snake in my yard and brought it
    home and ceremoniously laid it on my patio. I
    was not happy about this as the snake was around 2 feet long. ..and the cat was not happy
    as I got the snow shovel with the longest handle
    and moved the snake to where I would not have
    to look at it any more. He also brought home a
    dead squirrel that looked like it’d been thru a
    blender. My cat can also be very gentle and
    comes to my bed at night (hopefully without
    it’s latest victim).
