Toilet training can be very difficult. But patience and love work wonders. Every cat owner knows that it is necessary to prepare for the appearance of a four-legged friend in the house. Namely: stock up on a litter box, filler, spatula and, if necessary, special cat flavors.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a deep cat litter box at any pet store. It should be made of plastic or enamel. Cardboard boxes will leak and cannot be washed. Fill the litter box with special sand, wood chips, stars, or absorbent balls (which you can also pick up at the pet store). Do not tear the newspaper or paper: it gets wet quickly, and with the paper the cat will not be able to use natural instincts to rake in their waste.
Step 2
Even if your kitten is too small, you can already put him in the litter box every time he finishes a meal. Your cat must become familiar with the box to understand its purpose.
Step 3
Place the litter box in a secluded area. The kitten must feel safe and comfortable when it starts walking there, otherwise toilet training can take a long time. It is desirable that the litter box is located against the wall and not accessible from all sides. Place the tray away from the kitchen and food. Don't change its location too often.
Step 4
When the kitten settles in an area outside of its toilet, carefully transfer it to the litter box. If he has already gone to the floor, if possible, saturate litter or sand from his toilet with waste material and transfer to a box. Perhaps the smell of his own urine is more eloquent than persuasion will make it clear where to go.
Step 5
You can use special fluids to spray in the wrong places where the animal is doing its business. The smell of the liquid will scare the kitten away from restricted areas.
Step 6
If, after a few weeks, the kitten stubbornly refuses to deal with the litter box, it may be due to the sand or improper litter, and not your cat's temperament.
