How to teach a cat to use the litter box

They are great for reducing waste from your pet, but not all cats like them. They may find it difficult for cats to use, as they might end up getting too comfortable or wrong.

Here are some suggestions to help ensure you have the best success with teaching your cat how to use the litterbox.

  1. You should ensure that your cat can stand straight up in the box without having to bend down.
  2. Try to place it where your cat likes to go outside - if that doesn't happen naturally, try putting it near another room with a door leading outside.
  3. 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.
  4. If your cat is used to living outdoors, avoid sudden movements or noises when you introduce the box to him.
  5. Once he becomes comfortable with it, reward him by giving praise when he uses the box correctly. You might even want to include treats in his rewards, though these should only be given after he's done his business.
  6. You shouldn't force your cat to use the litter box.
  7. Be patient! You may need to wait several weeks before your cat begins using the box. Don't be discouraged if it takes longer than you expected.
  8. Contact your veterinarian immediately if your cat behaves aggressively towards animals or people. This could be a sign that your cat has a serious problem such as a kidney infection or a urinary tract condition.
  9. Keep your cat clean and tidy, especially around the litter box.
