How To
How to teach a cat to use the litter box
While litter boxes can help reduce your pet's waste, they may not work 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.
Here are some suggestions to help ensure you have the best success with teaching your cat how to use the litterbox.
-
Your cat should be able to stand straight in the box, without having to lean down.
-
It's best to place it where your cat would go outside.
-
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.
-
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 becomes comfortable with it, reward him by giving praise when he uses the box correctly. You might consider including treats in your reward, but these should be only given to him after he has done his business.
-
Don't force your cat into using the box; if he refuses to do so, ignore him and leave him alone until he decides to change his mind.
-
Be patient! It might take several weeks before your cat uses the box every day. Be patient.
-
You should immediately contact your veterinarian if your cat is acting aggressively towards people or other animals. 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.
