How To Introduce A New Litter Box To Your Pet Cat

Most cats don’t have problems using a new litter box. However, since they are such fussy creatures, there are those that may be second thoughts about using the new litter box especially if it’s design, location, type of litter, or size is different from the old one. If you have just brought home a new litter box to replace the old one, be sure to introduce it properly. If you are changing your cat’s old litter box with a new one, be sure that your pet won’t turn his nose at the new litter box and do his business someplace else. The magic words here are ‘gradual transition’ since cats hate anything new or strange. Make the transition easier by getting a litter box that is similar in size or design to the old litter box. Even if you want to switch to a new type of litter, use the old type of litter that your cat has been used to in order to prevent subjecting your pet to more stress.  Consult with your Clarington Animal Hospital Oshawa, ON if you have any concerns about your pet’s potty habits.
