Litter Box Problems?

admin — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 16:00:40 +0000

There are five major reasons your cat stop using his/hers littler box

1. Litter box is dirty. If the box is dirty, your cat will probably go somewhere else in your house.

2. Using the “wrong” litter. Some cats prefer some types of litter over others. If you cat doesn’t like the litter, he’ll stop using the box.

3. Litter box is placed in an undesirable location, or the cat is blocked from the box by a more dominating cat in the household.

4. Box size is too small or there are too few boxes. If you have multiple cats, there needs to be lots of clean boxes – at least one per cat.

5. Medical problems including diabetes, cystitis & bladder stones. Always have your cat examined by your vet to make sure there isn’t an underlying medical problem.

One way to solve your problem is a self cleaning litter box. If you can’t get to cleaning daily try using the electronic cat litter boxes. There are several type in different price ranges. If it a dirty litter box problem, you’ll be really surprise the efficiency of a automatic new box.

Is your Cat having problems using the litter box

My cat JJ had a urinary track infection which required surgery to eliminate the problem. However after some time I found JJ was not using the litter box but doing his business right next to the box. I spent many hours trying to figure out how to retrain him to use the appropriate cat litter boxes. Because I have 7 cats I found out the following remedies to reintroduce JJ to using the littler box instead of the floor. Here is what I found out and want to share with all you cat lovers who might have the same problem.

Like I indicated above it may be a medical problem, including diabetes, cystitis (inflammation of the bladder), bladder infections & bladder stones. You should have your cat examined by a veterinarian for any of these problems.

A sexually male or female that has begun to spray should be neutered immediately. Spraying is urine marking in the standing position. Cats that have been spraying for only a short period of time are more likely to return to normal than cats that have been spraying for a long period of time. The sooner these animals are neutered, the less likely they are to continue spraying urine which marks their territory.

One of the major thing to consider is the poor choice of litter. Some cats don’t like certain textures or oder and will become very picky about their litter. You need to notice when your cat stopped using the box when you have changed to a different kind of litter.

If you have multiple cats you will need multiple boxes in different areas of the house. Dominate cats can intimidate your other cats in the house from using the litter box.

Cats are creatures of habit. Often, if their routine is disturbed, they urinate in inappropriate locations. Changing the location of food, water, and bed can cause urine marking. Changing the location of familiar objects should be done gradually in order to avoid anxiety attacks. Each day, the box should be moved only a few inches. If the box is moved too quickly, the cat may urinate in the original location.

You should clean the litter boxes at least once a day, but I prefer twice daily because of my multiple cats. I also prefer clumping litter and filling the box almost up to the top. Cats like to bury their waste, thus eliminating odors after using the box.

So if your having problems, I recommend you investigate the above solutions so you and your cat can become happy friends.

Senior Mrs. Kitty

Mrs. Kitty joined our family several years ago and was adopted from the local Humans Society. She was locked up from February through December and was placed in a cage in the lobby of the adoption center. The main reason I adopted her was because she was 12 years old and need a good home for the rest on her life. Her pervious owner locked her up in the basement for many years because she had problems finding the litter box to take care of her daily needs. When I brought her home she settle down in my master bedroom and has never left these past two years. There was a community litter box shared by all my cats which she used at first, but then reverted to taking care of her business on the floor next to the bed. To solve this problem I purchased a small litter box just for her use, which eventually solved the problem. After a while the placement of the litter box became annoying next to the bed, so I purchased a cool litter box cover night stand to put next to the bed. This solved two problems: the litter box placement and having a night stand next to the bed to place my lamp for reading. She now continues to use to the new cat litter box cover night stand and no more probles with mistakes on the carpet. Just remember some times you need to make adjustments to you life styles to make your cat comfortable and happy campers.

Joey’s & JJ discussion about cat litter boxes

“JJ,” said Joey, “Have you noticed how much time Mom and Dad spend cleaning up our old litter box?”

JJ, who had been sitting in the Habikat Cat Patio watching the leaves falling in the yard said, “Well, I
haven’t been keeping a record of it but they both spend some time getting it cleaned up and in order.
Why do you ask?”

Joey nodded and then went on, “Auzzie said that it is going to be a hard winter after this drought we’ve
had and he thinks we might be spending more time indoors this winter. I know that I hate going out in
the cold.”

JJ replied, “What’s your point? How does one affect the other?”

Joey stretched and went on, “The other day when we were over at Maggie’s house for her birthday party
I noticed that she had a LitterMaid litter box near the backdoor. When I mentioned it to her she said that
her folks had found that it was the best way to keep the area neat and clean. I thought that with
Christmas coming on we might get one for Mom and Dad, to make their lives a little easier.”

“Have you asked Auzzie what he thinks?” JJ asked.

Joey replied, “He seems to know a lot about the different models of cat litter boxes there are. He said theyare easy to use and the are self-cleaning, too! The specially designed receptacles make the cleaning job
a snap.”
