Not using the litter box is funny in ways

My cat does this weird thing where he sits in the litter tray, and then poos
over the side, but still tries to bury it, thus getting the litter all over
the place, very attractive not!

We have this problem with at least one of the cats occasionally
not using the litter box. We don't know which one, but one
of them at least once a week decides to do his/her business
in the laundry room.

I've told my wife that I don't have any responsibility for this.
I didn't want the cats inside; for years whatever cats we had
lived outside, and I built an insulated and heated cat house
for them. But she and the kid decided, a few years ago, to
invite the cats inside.

She claims whichever one that does it is doing it because the
laundry room is warmer. I say its because they like the fact
that her and the kid leave socks on the laundry room floor
(usually, the stuff is covered by a sock).

In any case, I'm not going to clean it up. She won't clean it
up until its hard, which is not acceptable to me. Her excuse
is that waiting until its hard makes it easier to pick up, as
she says, like a man in a bar.
