How to teach a kitten to walk on the toilet
Accustoming the cat to toilets - The process is fairly simple, but long. Small, almost imperceptible changes, small steps to the target - and in a month or two your pet will already be confidently using the toilet, and you get rid of the need to constantly monitor the status of the tray.
Instructions
1
Prerequisites for teaching Kitten to the toilet - this is a confident use of the tray andage is older than three months (otherwise the kid just can not jump on the seat and stay there). Your main task at the first stage is to move the tray as close as possible to the toilet. After each use of the tray, move it a few centimeters until you reach your intended goal.
2
After the tray has taken its place at the foot of the toilet, do not touch it for several days - let the animal get used to the new location of its toilet.
3
Prepare a bale of old newspapers or magazines. Place them under the tray, gradually (1-2 centimeters at a time) lifting it above the floor. You can do this several times a day, after each use of the tray. Make sure that the structure remains stable and does not stagger. Do not try to speed up the process - otherwise the animal may become confused. If at some point the cat started to miss - lower the tray a few centimeters, do not change its position for several days, and then start lifting again - but already slower. In the process, gradually reduce the amount of filler.

After the tray has risen to the leveltoilet seat, watch your pet for several days - you should be sure that he easily jumps on this height, feels calm and confident. After that, remove the newspapers and set the tray directly on the sides of the toilet, making sure that it does not stagger.

After a few days, remove the tray and hide itin a place inaccessible to the cat (that he could not find it by smell), leaving the seat up. Your pet will only have to do his business directly in the toilet.

If at this stage there was a failure - you can returntray back, and a few days later cut a small hole in the center of the structure, after a few days to increase it - and so on until from the long-suffering cat litter will not be left alone side. You can also buy a special kit for teaching cats to the toilet - in fact, it is the same tray (only made in the form of a seat), with a hole in the bottom - it can be increased gradually.
