Why do cats run around like Satan's chasing them after using the litter box?

Question

My cat always tears through the house like he's insane after leaving a little something in his litter box. It's hilarious, and I'm pretty sure it's normal since he was always like this, but I'm wondering if anyone knows the reaosn to why cats do this?

Answer 1

i guess he's just glad to clear his bowels... i mean, who wouldn't? lol he sounds fine

Answer 2

Yeah, my cat does that too. Mainly with BM. She leaps out of the box and tears around the house. It's hysterical.  

Answer 3

will before cats go to the bathroom in the litter box they are fool from eating and bloded and when they do go they get hipper because he is not full and bloded any more

Answer 4

My cat does that too sometimes after taking a dump. I know she's happy when she is running around so it must be that they just feel relieved.

Answer 5

I have 3 kitties, one of my kitties now fights constipation she acts weird at times when she gets out of the litter box, like she just has a helluva time in there going, poor thing. .. I am trying different things to help her, feed her only canned for now, its helping. Could this be his problem? or maybe he hates the sand between his toes?
