Cat litter boxes are like boxes of buried treasure to dogs.

Some dogs also like the taste of the Cat litter itself.

Your dog could get intestinal parasites from eating fecal material.

Hookworms, roundworms, whipworms, and Giardia could be transmitted from coprophagy (the medical term for eating fecal material).

Can dogs get parvo from eating cat poop? No, parvovirus is usually a species-specific virus, so dogs will only catch parvovirus from other dogs or dog feces. Cats have their own infectious parvovirus though, which is also known as panleukopenia virus (or feline infectious enteritis) and is only contagious between cats.
