Keeping Your Cat From Pooping Outside The Litter Box

The truth about making money from home










If you have on your hands a cat who refuses to poop in the litter box, you certainly have a clear understanding of exactly how annoying this can be; after all, you would think it would be obvious to them where they are supposed to poop - and you would certainly like to stop having to clean up after them!

If this is a situation you have found yourself facing, the first thing you need to realize is that your cat does, in fact, know where they are supposed to poop, and there is a good chance they are simply pooping in the wrong places in order to be rebellious.

The first thing you need to make sure of is that you are using a high-quality litter that is not causing your cat to search for other places to poop; furthermore, you will want to make sure you are keeping your litter box regularly cleaned, as picky cats will try to use a clean area for a bathroom if their litter box is too dirty for their liking.

The next thing to focus on is that you make going to the bathroom something that is positive for them, just as you would if you were potty training a child; each time you see your cat go to the bathroom in their litter box - even if you have to set them in there yourself in order to make them do so - praise them and reward them with a treat!

And finally, you will want to make sure it is unpleasant for them to go to the bathroom outside the litter box, and the best way to accomplish this is to use a spray bottle on them when you find poop around the house - showing them the poop and spraying them in the face again and again.

It can be difficult to get a rebellious cat to start doing the right thing, but if you start following these tips, you will soon achieve success!
