Why Do Cats Roll Around In Litter Box. At first i thought it was for attention, but she also does it when i'm out of the house. Young cats and kittens in particular can seem to go in their litter box to play, rather than to pass urine or feces.

I had a cat that did this once, but i was so traumatized by it that i didn’t let her back into the house for about 10 minutes. If your cat has been using a clumping litter for a long time and all of a sudden leaves the box you should try changing the kind of litter you use. A cat rolling over isn’t requesting a tummy tickle as the belly is the most delicate part of a cat’s anatomy.
