    on point. we inherited a Cat Hospital resident, who was familiar with the box already. a twist: when he Piddled, he got a pinch of treats. when he pooped, he got his Bobbly Snacky mouse toy stuffed with treats. our home doesn't have "that" smell--he makes sure we do our job every time, on time!!

    Everyone talking about “why is my cat peeing on my stuff” 95% is because they are not neutered or spayed, they are marking territory.

    does anyone have advice for litter training a elder cat who is used to using the bathroom outdoors? i'm moving next year and want to bring a 13-year-old cat who is bonded with me, but he isn't litter trained like our primarily indoor cats, so i'm not sure how to help him understand the concept of litter boxes at such an old age. i will be bringing him to a vet before the move so i have more tailored advice, but if anyone has successfully litter trained an older cat i would be so grateful for the advice :)

    I have a 6 years old cat and he is just not the sharpest pencil in the box. Sometimes he poops in the right place, sometimes not. I have already tried different litters, litter boxes, places, cleanliness degree, positive reinforcement - nothing works or gives garantee that he will poop in the litter box. However he always pees in the box. Im starting thinking about it like it is his temperament idk...

    I am working with an adult (12 months) feral cat. Sometimes she uses the box, others she just go somewhere after feeding - the box is close to where she feeds, the accidents is close to the litter box, in different spots. I just ordered another box, so will have two out for her. She has a clipped ear so I assume she has been fixed. I hope this works for this little feral cat....

      @carter...apollo147 Рік тому +12

      this is true in some cases, but keep in mind that when you punish a cat, they may not fully understand why they are being punished. they are not like human children who can understand the idea of cause and effect. in those cases they may develop stress and continue the unwanted behavior. because it's a possibility, it's best not to punish the cat at all and instead try alternatives like placing litter boxes in the spots they are continually using as a bathroom or take them to a vet to better understand the underlying issue. i hope this helps with understanding the nuances of this situation 💕

    • @timmyisdumb
      @timmyisdumb Рік тому +1

      NO! What? You mean we should punish our cats for not using litter box properly and that it would teach them a better lesson? Keep in mind that the cats are very observing and emotional creatures and the bond that they share with us is the bond that should be respected and if you're the favorite person of a cat and if you punish them physically, that bond will break soon enough and would make your cat hate you and they'll start seeing you like they'd see any normal person.
