Litter Box Basics

Why cat’s stop using their litter boxes

-the box is still dirty
-they don’t like the litter material
-the litter box is in a bad location
-another more dominant feline is blocking the entrance to the box
-the box is too small for the kitty

What you SHOULD do

-try to clean out the litter box twice a day by scooping out clumps and feces
-use litter that clumps together
-add enough litter to make it feel deep enough for the cat
-use larger, rather than smaller litter boxes
-place the litter boxes in relatively quiet areas

What you SHOULD NOT do

-use litter that has a scent added to it
-use plastic mats that mimic the appearance of grass
