How to Teach Your Cat to Use a Litter Box

Whether you’re teaching a kitten, middle aged cat or a senior, teaching them to use a litter box can be done it just takes repetition. For kittens, place them in the litter box every hour or two hours to relieve herself. Keep the kitten with her mother long enough that she can see that the mother uses a litter box. Kittens learn a lot of skills from the mother. For middle aged cats or seniors, take them to the litter box every couple of hours. If they start to go in the house, immediately place them in the litter box. If they have an accident outside of the litter box, take some of the potty and put it in the litter box and then place your cat in the litter box. The smell can help her learn that she needs to go in the box. Read here for more suggestions or consult with your vet clinic Lakeville, MN.
