This is part of an anti-LGBT hoax. Conservatives made up the lie that children were using litterboxes. They are equivocating “identifying with a gender that you weren’t assigned at birth” with “identifying as an animal”. It’s like how conservatives said that if same sex marriage became legal, then people would start marrying their dogs.
Some people also speculated that the hoax began because some classes have litter buckets as part of school shooting preparedness.

The whole thing that gay people are paedophiles came about in a similar way. It’s anything to say “gay=bad”.
I remember as a kid my dad saying I shouldn’t get near gay men because they would molest me. WELL DAD, NOW I’M THE GAY MAN.
Cat litter is a staple in janitorial closets and school chemistry labs for general cleanup of liquids.
