When a new small tenant appears in the house, the question of how to train a kitten to walk into a litter becomes relevant. It should be noted that all babies are completely different: someone manages to master the necessary skills the first time, but with someone you will have to work thoroughly. Knowing the basics will make it quicker and easier to get used to the tray.
Instructions
Step 1
The tray should be in one place, preferably within the kitten's field of view. If it is a bathroom or toilet, at first it is recommended to leave the door open so that the baby can see his device.
Step 2
Cats are scent oriented. Therefore, you can take some cat litter from the litter box from familiar cat owners or from the kitten's mother. This method is considered to be quite effective and proven. Focusing on the smell, the kitten will quickly figure out what this device is intended for.
Step 3
It is necessary to monitor the behavior of the kitten. If he begins to "look for" a place, meow, sniff corners, boxes - it's time to plant him in the tray. The first time you have to work hard, because kittens go to the toilet more often than adult cats.
Step 4
If there is a mistake and a puddle has formed in the wrong place, it is recommended to dip a sheet of paper, newspapers in it and put it in the tray. It will be much easier for a kitten to be guided by its smell.
Step 5
It is advisable to study the preferences of the animal. Toddlers often like to dig litter for the toilet, so it is recommended to choose the right one: fine or in the form of sand. However, you need to monitor the kitten, many babies try to taste the granules.
Step 6
The litter box is best used when the animal has acquired the necessary skills and will walk in the litter box without missing a beat. A little patience, perseverance, and a new family member will master the rules of behavior in human society.
