Kitten
My daughter's room's cat had a litter of 2, the one was litter train very
easy, of course the one she kept, has not caught on. What can she do to train it to go in the box? She's tried letting her smell it and then put it in the box for her to smell and get the idea. No luck. Carol In WI |

She should make sure the kitten is in a room of its own with litter, water,
food, and a bed. Kittens are often too young to wander a house and find their way back to the box. Make sure the litter tray has low sides and use unscented, clumping litter. Have her put the kitten in the tray several times per day. Gail "Carol In WI" wrote in message ...

Carol In WI I thought you weren't supposed to use clumping litter with kittens as they sometimes eat litter and clumping litter can swell and cause them severe stomach problems. |

Hi Carol,
When I was litter box training my kittens I would take their poop and put it in the litter box. Don't let kitty see you do it though, because then they will think that you will just clean up after them after they go. Do it during play time away from the litter area. Also keeping the kitten in a bedroom where they can get to the box ASAP is the best. Babies often forget that they have to go till it is almost too late. After kitty eats or after play time stick kitten in the box. I used soda box flats for my babies litter boxes they work nice. Use unscented and non clumping litter because baby might try to taste test it. I hope this helps keep us posted. Amber, and the 10 Rescued Kitty Brats, 6 Fish, 3 LOUD Birds, & 1 Snake. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* S*T*R*E*S*S That confusion created when ones mind overrides the bodies basic desire to choke the living crap out of some jerk that deserves it. |
