Litter Training Your Kitten - It Isn't As Hard As You Have Heard



Okay, you rescued this adorable little kitten, youve brought it home, and now reality has started to set in. You have to litter train this little kitty, unless you want to constantly walk behind him with a mop and bottle of disinfectant, yuck. If you have friends who have tackled this monstrous-sized feat before, then you have probably already heard all of the horror stories of just how difficult litter training your kitten can be.

While litter training your kitten is not as easy as any of us would like it to be, it is not nearly as bad as everyone says it is, not if you do it the right way. Just as with potty training your toddler, you have to have patience, and be willing to work with your kitten, especially if your kitten is younger than three months old.

When it comes to litter training your kitten, the first thing you need to do is purchase a litter box. Visit your local pet supply store, and let them know that you are looking for a litter box for a small kitten, and they can direct you to the right ones. You need to get a litter box that is small enough so the kitten isnt afraid of it, and can get into and out of easily.

The next thing you will need to do is purchase some kitty litter to go in the litter box. There are many different varieties to choose from, and again, your clerk at the pet supply store might be able to give you some good suggestions. Some people say that they have had better luck in the past with litter training if they used a scented litter, but it varies from kitten to kitten.

When you take the litter box home, you will need to decide where you want to put it, and leave it there. You can move it around, or you will only confuse your kitty. Once you get it in place, with the litter inside, take your kitten to the box, so that she can see where it is. The litter box should be placed close to your kittens favorite place, so she can get to it quickly and easily. If your kitten has decided that it prefers your living room, then that is where you should place the litter box at, at least until your cat is fully litter trained, and then you can move it around as needed.

You may need to place your kitty in the litter box a few times, and scratch her paw in the litter to help her understand what it is for. It is a good idea to place your kitty in the litter box after she finishes eating or drinking, as this is most likely when she will need to use it. It may take some time, but she will soon catch on. Litter training your kitten may take a lot longer if she is young when you begin, so be prepared. If your kitten doesnt seem to be catching on to litter training, you may have to shut her in the room with the litter box for a few days, so that she will have fewer places to go potty at.

A kitten will not use a dirty litter box, or at least not for very long, so you should make certain that you change your kitty litter regularly.
