Cat Toilet Training
4 June 2007If your cat has no idea of the toilet, you have to give an important attention to this matter. However, the training process is not as complicated as it appears to be at the first sight. If you are determined to educate your cat, you should start with a kitten, because training a big cat is more difficult.
Let us start from this:
- You have to look after your cat for a while, because otherwise, the training process will take too long and it will be too tiring. The best moment to start the cat training is when you are on weekends or on holidays – in this way, you will have enough time to look after your darling and correct its deeds.
- Consider your kitten like a young baby: therefore, do not holler or beat it if it “does” on the floor.
- Be patient: Just take the cat to the toilet. If after some weeks of acquaintance with you your kitten, it still keeps its old habits, talk to it loudly (but not shout), show the “heap” and keep the cat near it and say: “What is this?, Who did this?, Never do this again! “After this, take the cat to the box, dip into the sand, and let it dig into it.
- Remember! The cats’ organism is built in a way that correction process follows only after feeding, so feed your pet while training.
- If your cat goes around, looks for a place or sits on its legs, the training may be considered successful. Now take the kitten to the box and do not let it out of the box until it is not finished.
- It is not a secret that the cats find the toilet by the smell! So, if your beloved kitten “did” in an unexpected place, you must clean the place properly because it will continue to “do” there in the future.
Build a friendly relationship with your kitten - cats get accustomed very quickly to use the toilet and to maintain their hygiene in a perfect state. Good luck!

Sometimes the little cat will train themselves. We made up 2 trays and placed them in places she played in regularly, then when she did do her business, we left it there for a couple of days and she went to those litter trays each time. But we were lucky.

I have a cat toilet training blog where you can watch the progess of my two Devon Rex kittens. I am by no means an expert, but you can learn from my method and my mistakes.

I have tried numerous times to get our cats to use the toilet– maybe we started too late… Mary — www.angleashes.com
