Our cats usually just pick the nearest surface (often the kitchen floor)

My cat will run from the kitchen to throw up on the carpet right beside it, then go back and flop on the floor beside his dish and keep eating like a drunk middle aged man.

Yeah, every cat I've had always make sure to get to carpeted floor if they're going to be sick and avoid puking on anything I'm trying to place in front of them to avoid it ending up on the carpet. Can't get sick on the easy to clean tiles.

I wonder if they instinctively feel as if it's grass or something, and so they don't want to leave puke out in the open

Some post grad must have done a study on this.
