If they poop outside their litterbox on mat, how do I determine the guilty party and also why does it stochastically happen only occasionally and at night?

    They could poop inside the box but digging it out by mistake when trying to cover it.

    If you have more than one cat, one might be stressed by the other(s), especially if new.

    Cat might be too old or too small to climb into the box, or not feeling well.

    Some cats are assholes and doing it on purpose to show you they are not happy (is the box clean?).

      Ya they have an auto and its always clean. It only started happenint since I spread out the mats to cover more of the floor.

      I know the obvious solution is to go back to the way it was (more or less on top of each other) but so much shrapnel litter gets tracked otherwise.
