How To
How to teach your cat how to use the litter box
They are great for reducing waste from your pet, but not all cats like them. They're often too small (or just plain wrong) for them to get comfortable in, and they may end up smearing the mess around the floor and leaving it there.
Here are some suggestions to help ensure you have the best success with teaching your cat how to use the litterbox.
-
Make sure the box has enough space for your cat to comfortably stand up straight inside without having to crouch down.
-
Place it in a place where your cat is most likely to be outside. If that doesn't happen, you can try placing it in a room with an outside door.
-
Allow your cat to drink water during his regular routine of going to the bathroom. This will help reduce stress and anxiety about him using the box.
-
If your cat is used to living outdoors, avoid sudden movements or noises when you introduce the box to him.
-
Once he has gotten used to it, praise him when he uses it correctly. He might be tempted to receive treats as a reward. However, these should not be given until he has finished his business.
-
Do not force your cat to use the box. If he refuses, ignore him and let him go until he changes his mind.
-
Be patient! It can take several months before your cat is able to use the box consistently.
-
Your veterinarian should be contacted immediately if you notice any behavior changes in your cat, including aggression towards other animals or humans. This could indicate a more serious condition, such as a bacterial infection of the kidneys.
-
Don't forget to clean up after your cat, including the area surrounding the box.
