Are humans the only animal that wipes things off? - eviltoast

I know the title is poorly worded but I can’t really think of how exactly to word the question.

I was watching a cat try to find a place to sit that wasn’t covered in snow and it made me think about how humans wipe off snow covered seats or just dirty seats in general.

Is that a uniquely human thing or are there other animals that exhibit similar behaviors?
