Cats View on Litter Boxes

As a cat, I can tell you that litter boxes are an essential part of our lives. It’s not just a box filled with sand or litter, it’s our sacred space where we do our business, and sometimes, even take a nap. But, let me tell you, the way you humans treat our litter boxes is sometimes quite amusing.

From our perspective, litter boxes are more than just a place to pee and poop. It’s where we mark our territory and leave our scent. It’s where we go to find solace when we’re feeling down.
