Cat Training Secrets To Litter Box Training And Potty Training Your Cat
When you first bring home kitty you need to have a litter box in place
where you are happy with it. This is because it is the very first thing
you do when kitty comes in the house on day one or you are asking for
trouble already. Set it away someplace but make sure kitty sees it
right away and sniffs it.
There are all kinds of litter boxes on the market and you can splurge
or go low tech/price it is your call. They have automatic boxes but it
may make small kitty feel uncomfy and unwelcome. They have covered
boxes but kitty may be too small to get into it on the step up. Covered
boxes will retain smell better than uncovered. You can always start
with cheap open and move to the automated later. Warning, the automated
box may scare kitty from using it again if it goes into work during a
bathroom break, so make sure you control the movement. Kitty may
abandon the box if scared and move to another part of your house.
When it comes to choosing litter do not spend much time. Kitty cares less and there are so many on the market.
You just pick the best choice for you be it fresh smelly, auto clumping or whatever.
However, you may want to stay with the same litter the breeder used or
shelter at first to make the cat feel more at ease, then you can switch
after a while to whatever you like. Scoopy, clumpy, cedar, crystal they
are all good. Some are for multiple cats to reduce odor.
Litter mats are what you put underneath the litter box so when we train
the cat we don't have litter scattered everyplace. See the Cat will
scratch at the litter and then cover it up and may spray the litter all
over your floor. This is just natural instincts of the cat and is no
problem. He may also have some stuck in his claws as he tracks it away.
Therefore, put a mat or something under the box for you ease of mind
and clean house.
