    Is it maybe a burying instinct, like they have with their poop? The carpet might seem more like grass or lose ground, where it is possible to bury it. You don’t really want the puke rotting away on the stone ground of your lion’s den, do ya?

      I don’t know about others but my cat does not try to bury puke. She immediately wants to get as far as from it as possible and will actively avoid the area until the puke has been cleaned up.
