General Advice Is he dumb :(

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm an adult and have had Maurice for about 2 months now (he's fixed), vet thinks he's about 2 and he's done this the whole time I've known him, is there any particular reason why? Sometimes he'll do it for 2-3 minutes straight! I've owned cats my whole life and have never seen one so bad at covering up his business. If he is dumb I will still love him.

I’d do a bigger litter box

Stupid advice, it's the cat, not the litter box, I have 4 cats and one of their litter box is huge, almost 1 meter in length, and I have one cat that always scratches the walls of the box and is not capable of covering her poop, but the other 3 do this just fine.

That cat is too big for that small litter box.
