Why cats suddenly don’t want to sleep in the cathouse
1. The cat litter
has a pungent smell or peculiar smell
Cats have a sensitive sense of smell, are very sensitive to smells, and especially do not like pungent smells. If the cat litter emits a pungent smell, such as perfume, orange, etc., the cat will be reluctant to stay in the cat litter after smelling these smells, let alone sleep in the cat litter. In this case, the owner can try to spray some cat pheromone in the cat litter to cover the smell that the cat does not like. If the smell is too strong to cover up, it is recommended to clean the cat litter before using it for cats.

Cats are animals that love cleanliness very much. They hate dirty environments and objects very much. It can be seen from the fact that cats clean their hair several times a day. until they have a certain cleanliness. Cats tend to refuse water if they feel that the water in their bowl is not clean or fresh enough. The same is true for the cat litter. If the cat litter is too dirty, the cat will dislike it very much and will naturally not sleep in it. Therefore, the owner should pay attention to keeping the cat litter clean. If the cat litter is found to be dirty, clean it in time.

4. The space of the cat litter is too small
If the cat litter is bought during the cat’s growth period, the cat litter will become larger as the cat’s size continues to grow. In addition to crowding, although the cat can retract into the litter, it may feel uncomfortable because it cannot comfortably stretch its limbs and change sleeping positions. The sleeping position of cats is often very unrestrained, and there are any positions. If the cat litter is too crowded, it will limit the cat’s performance, so it will not want to sleep in the cat litter.
In addition, some owners complained that their cats refused to sleep in the cathouse all the time. What is the reason? ? The main reasons are:
1. The material of the cat litter is wrong
Different cats have different preferences and have different requirements for the material of the cat litter. For example, some cats prefer furry materials . In addition, as the climate changes, cats’ requirements for cat litter materials will also change. If in summer, the cat litter you prepare for the cat is very thick, the cat will feel hot and will not want to sleep in the cat litter. Therefore, the owner should pay attention to adjusting the cat litter in time according to the weather changes. When the weather is hot, provide cats with a cold cathouse; after the temperature drops, arrange the cathouse to be warmer in time. In addition, no matter what time, the owner must pay attention to ensure that the cat litter is free of peculiar smell. If the cat litter has a peculiar or irritating smell, it will also cause the cat to abandon the cat litter.
2. The location of the cat litter is wrong
The cat is also very sensitive to sound, so the owner should place the cat litter in a relatively quiet place. If the cat litter is too noisy and the cat is easily disturbed when sleeping in the cat litter, then the cat will definitely not want to sleep in the cat litter. The owner can observe the place where the cat usually sleeps, and then place the cat litter in that place.
