I doubt a cat would eat its own poop, but it definitely wont be happy. Cats are very picky when they don't have a clean place to do their business and bury it.

Where does a cat poop?
I Know this doesn't have to do with this, but Cats Are NOT Attracted to Litter Boxes. If they poop in your garden and you know where they like to poop put a litter box in that spot. For some reason they don't come to another spot, they just stop doing it. If they continue talk to the owner of the cat.
Can a dog use a litter box?
I don't know, but i have had dogs eat my cat's poop before, so be careful! YUM! Dogs can be trained to use a litter box with a short (about 1 inch high) edge, but they do not like to hop over large sides. Also, dogs prefer to go on a "wee wee pad," instead of in litter.

Why do cats bury their poop?
No.But they do eat it sometimes. My indoor cats play with the poop. It's boredom. once you give other reasons not to get bored (like more toys and bigger place to run around), they'll STOP doing that. If they don't stop even so, get a top-entry litter box. It's harder for them to bring and fling their poop about when they have to jump out of the litter box using top entry.

How do you stop your 7 week old kitten from defecating on the blankets instead of the litter box?
When she has an accident, put her and the feces into the litter box. Use a stick to "dig" in the litter, and push it over the feces. Kittens normally learn from their moms. But sometimes, humans must teach them this skill. Don't reprimand them--the cat won't understand your words or tone of voice.If kitty is using the same spot over and again, try putting the litter box there for a few days.
What causes a cat to poop outside of the litter box?
I read on PetCareRx that feline diabetes, urinary tract infection, or a scarred bladder can be the primary reason why your cat is pooping outside the litter box. It can also be due to kidney stones or simply old age. It is a good idea to consult with a vet if you are concerned about this.
How do you train a kitten to poop in the litter box?
You have to keep putting it in the litter box until it gets the idea as to why it's there. Move it's feet around in the litter so that it can get use to the feel of the litter. Once it does it's job in the box, it should continue to do so. Be consistent and patient. Good luck.
