7 Secrets to Successful Cat Toilet Training

By: Henry Matthias

My loved ones never thought of cat toilet training, but like to have cats in the home. I do not really mind them around, but the problem of dealing with their wastes poses some challenges to me.

Thankfully, I read up and got some very useful tips.

Here are 7 tips I discover for cat toilet training :

1. A kitten of 8 weeks old is ready for training.

2. Every need to have have a name, and help the cat familiarize herself with the name. By being able to respond to her name, it makes the task of pet toilet training much easier.

3. By instinct, cats want to hide their wastes. Provide a litter tray and it is quite easy to toilet train them. A litter tray usually is made of plastic or enamel. The container should be filled with soil, sand, sawdust or commercial cat litters.

4. Usually, a kitten that is raised together with a mother that uses the litter tray will learn to use the tray itself eventually. For kittens or cats that need to be trained, it is best to familiarize them with the litter tray. The cat should be put inside the tray after being fed, after play or when it wakes up.

5. Be careful that the litter tray is put in a quiet and hidden place. Cats would not like to be seen when they use the litter tray.

6. When the cat uses the litter tray, make sure that you praise it for the good behavior. The best way to praise the cat is to pet it or pat it on its head. Food rewards are also useful instruments to praise the cat. However, a cat or kitten being trained that failed to make use of the litter tray should be corrected. The cat must be corrected immediately. A loud and sharp "no" or squirting the cat with water is the common ways to reprimand the cat. Do not use physical punishment. It is not a good practice. It also affects the relationship of the cat to the owners.

7. Slowly move the litter tray nearer to the toilet in very small steps over many days, big changes may confuse the cat or make it suspicious so just edge it closer to the bowl each time you clean it out and refill it. Eventually, take out the litter tray altogether, and your cat will still come to the toilet bowl.

It is good to please the family by having their pet at home. Proper cat toilet training solves the problems related to their waste. The above tips will help to achieve that after sometime
