Any animal in an apartment is difficult. Be that as it may, but even a graceful and clean cat can bring a lot of trouble if she was not accustomed to the litter box from an early age. Therefore, as soon as you decide to take a kitten, start thinking about this question.
Much depends on the mother cat and the period when the kitten stays with her. If the cat also lives in the apartment, and she is accustomed to the litter box, then everything will be much easier with the kitten. If you took a kitten from the street, then expect joy.
To potty train a kitten, you need to buy a suitable litter box. It should be comfortable for the kitten. The next step is to decide on your filler. Much depends on the smell, it is better if you first use a filler with a neutral aroma or none at all. The tray should be in one place and it is better if it is a toilet. Better not only from the point of view of the distribution of ammonia smells throughout the apartment, but also from the point of view of the cat. Cats divide the apartment into zones. In one room they sleep, in the other they go, and in the toilet, you know.
It can be difficult to train a kitten. Much depends on the character and intelligence of each individual kitten. If the kitten goes off in the wrong place, it should be punished; if it goes into the tray, praise it and give a rewarding piece of fish. The method of stimulation by rewards helps to potty train the kitten very effectively and quickly.
If the situation gets complicated, then you can resort to desperate action. When the kitten "misses" again, collect his oversight with a cloth and put it in the tray. The crime scene must always be thoroughly washed, otherwise the kitten may return to smell. As a rule, cats get accustomed to the litter box by going into it several times in a row. But remember to clean the tray as often as possible. Otherwise, you will receive a protest as a puddle in the most conspicuous place.
A little patience and your kitten will begin to walk to the right place, and please you with his cute antics. An animal carries a sea of positiveness if it is properly brought up. You have received recommendations, now it's up to you.
