Your Cat & The Litter Box

How to house train your kitten using the Litter Box




Firstly, do not allow your new kitten full run of the house
Try to contain him to the room you spend the most time
in so you can watch him most of the time


Close all bedroom doors and barricade other areas that do not have doors


Cats are fastidious animals and by instinct they prefer to bury
their urine and faeces


Watch your kitten carefully and if you see signs that
he is about to go pee or poop
gently pick him up without a fuss and without scaring him
place him in the litter box


Take one of his paws and scratch the litter with it
Because he can dig in the litter his natural instincts should take over


If the kitten uses the litter box give him lots of praise
If he doesn't use it don't force the issue


You must never use a raised voice or make him afraid of the
litter tray in any way


Once your kitten has used the litter he leaves the smell of
cat urine which will encourage him to come back next time


If he continues to have accidents try
transferring some urine or faeces to the litter box
so that the smell of it encourages him to use the litter






What are the signs kitty needs to potty


One of the signs that a kitten needs to eliminate
is that he will begin scratching at the floor

He will often go to a corner, behind a couch or a quiet area

Be observant and watch your kitten's behavior

Often a hurried departure from a game will indicate
that he is hurrying off for a bathroom break
