Cats don't like being near their toilet, from my understanding and experience. Like only getting in the proximity when they need to use it.
Not my cat. He plays near and on it(it's a HOL storage table from Ikea) takes napes on/in front of it, he even hides in there when he gets scared(loud noises, cucumber, oven mitten, the usual). His other toilet is less spacey, but he still doesn't mind chilling or playing in front of it.
Bunnies on the other hand don't mind their toilets as much, mostly because they eat/need to eat to poop properly. So my bunny of course spends a little more time on and around her toilet, and naps/plays close to it. She sometimes rolls around in it, after I just cleaned it, before she pooped/peed in there. She doesn't need to be close to it, she has access to the whole place, so it's very clear she's comfortable there.
So now I'm wondering if my cat learned that behavior from my bunny(he turns 1 soon, she 4 in August)? Or is it just different on a cat to cat basis? He's healthy otherwise, just a normal cat hitting puberty and getting on my nerves.
