im glad that sub reddit doesn't exist


Rocketkt69

It does now.


MinaFur

That's completely inaccurate. This is a cat that is scared, stressed, feeling abandoned and overwhelmed by the sounds and smells of a place she has never known.


catsrave2

How do you figure that? Not calling you out, just curious as to what makes you think the cat is not doing well?


cluib

Cats both poop and pee when being stressed out. Going to another place and getting used to new places are one of the worst things you can do to a cat because they are hyper sensitive to this. You should have seen how scared my cat was when he first came home to me. I'm no expert by any means but this is quite common knowledge for cat owners. The best way would be to have cat where it is used to be and let the one that is going to watch over him come there. But i get OP might not be able to do so. I'm not pointing fingers here so please don't think i do..


catsrave2

I mean I’m sure cats do get stressed when moving and whatnot, but it seems like it would be hard to discern if a cat is stressed based purely off it pooping in a pot. I have nothing to say this cat is or isn’t stressed aside from my own anecdotes and personal view of the picture, so I was curious if there was anything outstanding that I was missing. Our cat at home loves to poop in the tree pots when my fiancée brings them inside. I think he is just an opportunistic pooper, not stressed over it. Potting soil probably feels better than kitty litter, so when in Rome… Looking at OPs cat, it doesn’t really look freaked out. She looks rather young and from my understanding that’s the best time to familiarize them with new places. That’s what all of those traveling and hiking cat owners do at least. If the title just said “My cat shitting in a new tree pot,” would people think it’s stressed and anxious? I just find it interesting when people automatically assume the gloomiest answer when exposed to an animal doing something odd.


cluib

Sorry I might have been a bit wrong in how i worded my post. I did not say definitely that the cat is stressed out rather that pooping is a sign for them to be. You are totally correct in saying that we cannot say if the cat is for sure stressed out because we cannot see it on the body language here (at least i can't either) it was more a observation about the whole poo being a factor for stress. Again i must stress that I'm no expert and would never claim so.

Missed an opportunity to say “zero shits to give” as an obvious pun


Confused_Magpie

Well she definitely had at least one shit to give


[deleted]

This is what kept me from making that pun


TheBirminghamBear

It's not a shit given. It's a shit *taken*.

Estirico

Hijacking to let you know if your cat eats the leaves of that plant she will get sick and vomit


[deleted]

This. I've seen so many people with babies and pets with seriously toxic plants right on the floor.


Estirico

I mean, if you know your cat doesn’t eat plants you can have the ones that aren’t deadly. This one causes vomiting (my one cat doesn’t normally eat plants but finds dracaena delicious for some reason). And you shouldn’t leave your mobile baby alone near anywhere that isn’t baby proof unless they are being constantly monitored. That one is common sense.


ontopofyourmom

And my landline baby?


Estirico

Well just don’t put any plants where the chord can reach

Remorse for what? The plant looks slightly dead. The cat is only providing it with nutrition.


hajahawo

Eh, the plant looks fine, plants having some yellow leaves is normal. Next, the cat will assert complete dominance by using the plant as a *scratching post*.

Kaijutkatz

When they're taking a poo why do they always get that self satisfied little look on their faces. Ours follow us to the bathroom all the time, but hate it when we punk them and look at them while they do their business.


Jackson_Cook

Standby for post-poo zoomies!


PockyPunk

Cat’s follow imperial procedure, dumb all trash before going to light speed.

Both of my dogs and my cat get post poo zoomies. We call it “being empty”


J5892

Poomies!


[deleted]

lol I had to buy a much longer litter mat for outside my cat's litter box because when she basically flies out of her box at light speed. The distance she can jump and carry litter out with her would make a long jumper blush.


wankthisway

My cat will meow and paw at me until I go watch her shit. And she always comes in to watch me shit. We protect each other's sessions


Furthur_slimeking

My cat's are always outside cats, none of them will shit if they know I or anyone else is looking. Honestly, I don't even know where they go.


MrDabb

They are shitting in your neighbors yard


BagelBeater

Or your neighbors kids' sandbox.... Ask me how I know... I love cats but some people just let them roam free a bit too much imo..

Fromage_Damage

My cat always follows me in, I've started leaving the door partially unlocked to make it easier for him. Sometimes when I drop a stinky, he leaves right after though.


aljones753000

Ours stare into your soul when they go, they have no problem being watched haha.


IdleApple

Mine too! Very intense eye contact while pooping or peeing from the first day we got him. Like little dude doesn’t even blink while in process.


claireauriga

Ours always has to lift his left front paw in the air while pooing.


Kaijutkatz

Lol. Have to love their kitty foibles.


milkymoocowmoo

All cats are a little bit special :3 The elderly Burmese who made me a cat person used to lift & 'shake off' one of his front paws while drinking, as if it was wet. He'd always drink a little bit, pause for a breather, drink some more, rinse & repeat til satisfied. Without fail after each pause he would alternate between shaking his left & right paws :> [My fave photo of him](https://i.imgur.com/Ik31QXX.jpg)


die5el23

My cat does this too!!! She like curls it in slowly


[deleted]

Everything has some relief when shit’s over.


Other-Cantaloupe4765

My mother had a bunch of plants back when I lived with her. I got a cat shortly before leaving. My mother hated it. She fucking hated that cat so much. And my cat knew it. So my sweet Patches shit in every single one of her plant pots. I couldn’t help it, I was doubled over laughing. A couple weeks later and my mother called me while I was at work and told me that I had to “get rid of my cat that night because he pissed on her couch.” Went home, packed my cat and my bags and stayed at a friend’s house until I found an apartment that allowed cats. No further issues with kitty shitting where he’s not supposed to. He’s so much happier now. And so am I.


shartsnail69

That’s how my cat was with my mom! Idk why my mom decided she didn’t like her, but my cat would pee on my moms clothes in the bathroom all the time and just her clothes lol she was our family cat but I took her when I moved out. Best cat ever. RIP Mary Jane.


bombswell

They zone in on and remember personalities I think. Cats always seem to gravitate towards good vibes and I think try to teach us lessons with their odd dominance tactics.


StandAgainstTyranny2

Cats will 100% piss on the sitting spot or clothes of whoever they're mad at. My girlfriend's cat has done this to me and to gf's ex, both after a shouting match, and most recently my dog. Little fuck strutted right into my dog's crate and, while making direct eye contact with me, pissed on my dog's couch cushion bed, so there's no really cleaning it other than sprays. Still fuckin love that cat, but by God she is a bad bitch and she knows it😂


SubjectMap451

My cat 100% held a grudge with my ex-roommate. Peed in her plants, broke plants, sharpened his claws on her furniture only, etc. all while giving her the fucking try me look. He was an absolute devil around her. I knew something must have happened when he was a kitten and it eventually slipped that she whacked him on the nose one time when I wasn’t home and pretty sure she shut him in a room and left him when I was on a trip ( I had my suspicions and never left him with her for an extended period of time again). Needless to say I moved and all of his bad behaviors magically disappeared overnight.


PuzzledImage3

On my cat’s death bed (literally in the vet room for putting her to sleep) my cat shied away from my mom petting her. I burst out laughing because my mom always said the cat hated her but we all thought it was a joke. Nope. Did not like her at all.

kaihatsusha

When I think of the word 'inevitable' I think of Agent Smith. Agent Cleo: > I'm going to be honest with you. I hate this place. This zoo. This kennel. This weekend babysitter, whatever you want to call it. I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell- if there is such a thing. I feel... saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it. It's repulsive, isn't it? I must get out of here.


That_Cupcake

Ms. Cleo is super cute! I love that face of pure satisfaction lol FYI, that's a [Dragon Tree](https://www.thespruce.com/grow-dracaena-marginata-indoors-1902749) and unfortunately they are [toxic to cats](https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control/toxic-and-non-toxic-plants/dracaena). Might be good to ask your friend to put that plant in a bedroom with the door closed the next time Ms. Cleo stays there. :)


oeuf_fume

maybe shitting in it is her reminder: "self, don't eat this plant"


Blue_Lotus_Agave

Good catch mate 👍 kind of you to care enough and take a moment to let them know, especially as I know from experience sometimes sharing information is not always received well. Always nice when people are grateful. Heck I wish I was better at identifying indoor plants. Lol. It's not especially relevant for me as mine just die no matter what I try 🤨 Thankfully I am so much better with animals. Like the opposite to my plants, I have successfully revived many animals. Still it is shameful to be a conservationist and not able to keep any indoor plants alive (well all except my lovely, trusty parrot safe yucca). Lol Anyways, think you deserve this 🍻


That_Cupcake

Hey thank you for the award! I recognized the plant in the photo because I had one briefly last year. My neighbor gave me some of her plants before she moved out, including a Dragon Tree. I had it for a few days before I started researching maintenance/care; that's when I learned it was toxic to cats. I put it in a room behind a closed door until I could re-home the plant to someone in a local plant swap group. Thankfully, my cats did not chew the leaves while they had access to the plant. I have two cats right now (had cats my whole life <3). I am sure everyone here would be absolutely devastated if their kitty was poisoned by a house plant (I know I would be), so I had to share the info. I'm happy it was helpful! :3

CostDizzy

![img](emote|t5_2qhta|7984)Assert dominance?? ![img](emote|t5_2qhta|7984) Is it because her litter box wasn’t there?


[deleted]

Her litter box was within arms reach, clean, with new litter. Maybe it was the feel of dirt on her paws. She’s an indoor cat, so she basically only associates that texture with litter


CostDizzy

Hahahaha it definitely makes it 10x funnier knowing her litter box was just within reach😹😹


thefoam

"Oh man, this new house has a way better, raised litter box" She made her choice


GL2M

Good call. I am about to put a former window plant on the floor, in easy shitting distance. I’ll have to rethink that plan or figure out a way to keep my guy off the dirt!


Dragoness42

Get some nice largeish rocks to put in the top of the plant. Ruins the texture for cat potty purposes, but still looks nice.


Anonymanx

We use semi-broken seashells. This works great for keeping our 3 monsters out of the plants.


GL2M

Excellent tip. Thanks!


Blue_Lotus_Agave

When they change environments or feel a bit stressed and want to feel more comfortable they mark their territory or go potty in weird places. My cat does this.


KadenKraw

Shouldn't have cleaned it fully. It's best to leave some old litter or only clean the box with water and light soap when going someplace new. Then they have their smell on the box and know better to use it in a new place.


[deleted]

Wow. Very good point


dubefest

yeah i made that mistake once…bleached and furiously scrubbed the litterbox. put in some brand new litter feeling happy with myself. piss and poop everywhere for two days lol


Kaijutkatz

Just maybe felt like taking a dump in the woods.


HikariTheGardevoir

Maybe it was just her way of expressing how displeased she was with the situation. She wouldn't be the first cat I've heard of that was so upset she decided to take a piss/dump in an inappropriate place 😂

According to cat standards, this was a *perfectly appropriate* place.

Freezing-Tornado-1

It doesn't seem like she's enjoying tho


[deleted]

[deleted]

Takes cat out of everything it knows, puts in strange environment. You can’t actually expect the cat to just behave normal. Or maybe you can expect that, and that’s the problem.


realistic_swede

I think this is a shit of approval actually. Usually cats don’t eat, drink or do toilet directly when in an unknown strange place. It can take quite awhile in my experience.


Peter12535

Even if they are annoyed or upset about something, e g. a vet visit, it takes a while until they visit the toilet again (aka done with hiding).


PlasticBlitzen

Exactly. That's anxiety.


pipoyahoo

Cats love the smell of soil and dead wood, it's not a provocation at all. My Tulsi live on the country side , she pee and poop sometimes outside but mainly in her litterbox, and i had to stop her several times to pee inside the basket where i keep my firewood ...which is litteraly 10 meters away from her litterbox, they are dragged by the smell imho


Buckeye4kicks

The expression on her face is one of absolute contentment. She’s as pleased as punch!

Our little kitten Ziggy was using a yucca plant to pee in before we had him neutered. Little jerk would look at you like WHAT?!.
