How to teach your cat to use the litterbox
Litter boxes are great at reducing your pet's waste, but they don't always work out well for cats. They are often too small or just plain wrong for cats to be comfortable in. Cats may end up spreading the litter all over the floor and then leaving it.
To make sure you have the best chance of success when teaching your cat to use the litterbox, here are some things to keep in mind:
-
Your cat should be able to stand straight in the box, without having to lean 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.
-
Your cat should have access to water at all times, even if it's not possible. It will make him less anxious about using the box.
-
When you first introduce the box to your cat, try to avoid making sudden noises or movements, especially if he's already been accustomed to being outdoors.
-
Once he is comfortable with the idea, you can reward him with praise for using the box 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 or kitten to use the box.
-
Be patient! You may need to wait several weeks before your cat begins using the box. Don't be discouraged if it takes longer than you expected.
-
If you notice any changes in your cat's behavior, such as aggression towards humans or animals, contact your veterinarian immediately. This could be a sign that your cat has a serious problem such as a kidney infection or a urinary tract condition.
-
Finally, remember to clean up after your cat daily, including the area around the box.
