When Zion comes into the kitchen for a run around he is a good boy and uses one corner by the fridge freezer which initially had a cardboard box with paper in it but I replaced it with a very large litter tray yesterday which he has used this morning. He always uses that space to wee (with a few exceptions) which I am happy about. The only problem is, when he does a wee he just kinda sits there in it for a while and then hops out and his feet and tail are covered in urine. Then he hops around for a while and then jumps up on his box and cleans himself. He won't let me go near his backside with tissue or anything and we're still having issues with the handling.
First of all is this normal for him to just sit there? Also should I put some hay in there (I didn't bother just because he isn't in the kitchen that often but I suppose often enough) or should I get an absorbant type of litter and put it in there so it soaks it all up in the first instance?
One other question, although he wees in one place he seems to poo everywhere. I keep picking his poo up and putting it in the litter tray but that makes no difference. Any tips on how to limit this?
Thanks
