How to train a small kitten to go to the tray
When you bring a furry friend into your home, you are bound to run into a cat litter problem. Not all little kittens are accustomed to walking in ...
There can be many reasons for the refusal. Let's try to figure out the situation and create all the necessary conditions so that you and your new friend live comfortably and comfortably.
How to accustom a kitten to go to a tray
It is necessary to start, actually from the tray. The choice of size and colors depend on your taste. There is an opinion that a small kitten is better to take a small tray, this is a delusion. The baby will easily overcome the barrier 12 cm high. Moreover, they grow quite quickly and soon it will turn into a brazen kitty.
The next step will be the filler. Here it is better to take a small filler for kittens so that it is convenient for him to dig with his small paws. Some do without a filler in general, but there are difficulties here. The thing is that having gone once in an empty tray, the baby will not go there the second, if there is an old puddle remained there, they are so clean. The fillers themselves are different, so try and experiment, the choice will still remain behind the owner of the tray, that is, behind the kitten.
Choose the location. While the kitten is small, the place should be affordable and located nearby so that he can run to him without making, as they say in tights. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account secrecy. Let it be a quiet and calm place. Keep in mind that the door to the room where the tray is located should always be open. Especially the first time, until the new pet is stabilized in this process.
So, you fulfilled all the conditions, but this may not be enough to achieve the result. Some cats are accustomed quickly, and with some you have to tinker. Do not despair and do not get angry if you couldn’t accustom a small kitten to go to the tray the first time, in fact the kitten is the same small child.
In no case do not beat and poke his nose into the products of his life. If the kitten went the wrong way, threaten him with a finger, speak with him in a strict tone, it is allowed to even hiss (this is how cats do). Take a feces with a piece of paper and put in a tray.
Wash the crime thoroughly. You can use vinegar or lemon, cats do not like these smells. Try to block access to the place of illegal description. Move the cabinet there, put a large floor flower, do not worry it all temporarily, soon everything will return to your circles.
Be observant. If you see that the kitten rushes from side to side, put it in the tray. Praise, stir it if he did everything right.
The teaching process can take several days, and maybe several months. It all depends on your mood and zeal.
