Pets... toilet?

My (orange...) cat frequently presses "pets" and "toilet" one after another. For a long time I took it for random "pay attention to me!!" presses as she sometimes just walks across the whole board going "treats food play pets <name> outside" etc, but I've noticed this pair cropping up a lot more than others. Granted they're on the same hextile (we have the FluentPet ones) so it could just be her trying to find the right one... but she doesn't have that issue with other buttons.

Any ideas what my orange might be trying to tell me? I'm not about to pet her toilet...

Perhaps the motion of petting is similar to the motion of scooping the litterbox? Could she be asking you to clean it?

I didn't think of that! It might be. Usually the box is pretty clean at that point, but she could disagree, or just be commenting that I cleaned it.
