Default Opinions, please......

I won't be answering right away: I only have internet access at work. I've
posted to the group in the last couple of years. I was taking care of a
feral litter of kittens. I got 2 of them inside and they are doing great.
But, the third..........oi! I have her downstairs in the apartment building
basement where I live. The other two took to the litter right away, but
this one has been down there for three weeks and I have tried EVERYTHING.
-boxes all over the basement
-cat attract
-dirt in thelitter
-pine litter
-taking down her brother and sister's box

It's a huge basement and I don't know where she has been going, but it is
starting to smell and I'm getting worried about the landlord. (I will, of
course, do whatever is necessary to clean up the basement.)

I had pretty much decided that I would trap her, get her to the vet and then
put her into a large dog crate with litter and food. I just went to the
vet today to get worm meds so that I could get those into her before her vet
appointment and the technician started telling me how she may never be able
to be litter trained. I am just sick over all of this. I don't know
whether I should continue with my original plan? Let her back outside? I
so wanted to get the entire litter inside (even though never in a million
years did I think I would end up with four cats!!!) I'd appreciate any
comments, advice...........
