    I’ve got cats that are so desperate to bury their urine/feces that they will dig and scrape at whatever is around to do so, including the wooden floor. We noticed this when we’d empty the litter box into a bag and leave the bag by the door to take to the bin. If a cat found the bag they’d immediately start scraping at anything around to try to bury it, no doubt because of the scent.

      Yeah, that’s pretty typical. Every cat I’ve ever known has done the same thing. Not just poop though, anything smelly must be buried.
