Scooping the litterbox may not be the most fun part of caring for a cat, but it's one of the most important. Paying attention to what's going on in the box keeps you up to date on your cat's digestive health and something out of the ordinary can be the first sign of a problem.
Many cats are extremely regular, down to the number and even location in the box. For those cats especially, a change can be a big deal.
For example, Madeline didn't go as much yesterday and is typical, which is weird. Today she had diarrhea, which was probably caused by her getting a big chunk of wet food, when she usually has none. Now I know not to do that. Luckily, she is bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, so I think she'll be fine.
Our other cat, Jazz, who is sick, just got here last night and has only peed once. Hopefully he'll loosen up, eat more and start to have normal litterbox habits. He's a great guy and I'll have pics/vids of him soon.
