For the most part, learning to use a litter box is
instinctive for cats; however sometimes they may need a little extra coaching
along the way. The following are some
tips to help you train your cat to using a litter box successfully.
•
Place your cat in the litter box after every
nap, meal, play session or any other time your cat appears inclined to relieve
itself
•
While litter box training try leaving a small
amount of waste in the litter box so the scent can act as a reminder to your
cat as to what the box is for
•
Find a good location - away from high traffic
areas; preferably somewhere your cat can access at any time of day/night
•
Do not place the litter box near your cats food
or water
•
Never punish your cat for having an accident
outside the litter box. Instead I
recommend firmly saying NO and then placing your cat in their litter box and
praising them. This way they will begin
to associate positive reinforcement with the litter box as opposed to negative
associations.
• If you have multiple cats, you should have multiple litter boxes. Like us, cats want their privacy too
