The reasons why cats like to hide in litter boxes:

1. Cats themselves like to lie down in various boxes, which is a special hobby of cats.

2. Some cats lack a sense of security. When cats change to a new environment, they will be nervous and scared. Hiding in the litter box will make the cat feel more at ease.

3. If there are multiple cats or other animals at home, the cat will lie down in the litter box to defend its territory if it does not want other cats to occupy its litter box.

4. In addition, if the cat is sick, such as gastrointestinal disease or urinary system disease, the cat will excrete frequently. The cat will also lie down in the litter box in order to make it easier to go to the toilet.

5. If the cat’s living space is relatively small, there is no place to lie down, or the cat feels too cold. They also choose to sleep in the cat litter box. The cat litter is relatively soft and has a certain insulation effect.
