There will be times when your kitty will not use her litter box. Eventually, avoiding the litter box will become a problem because your kitty will go somewhere else to relieve herself. If you don’t act on this concern, you might discover that your cat has taken other furniture as her bathroom. You might have to clean your rug or chair. Encourage your cat to use the litter box instead. As you coax your cat to go back to the litter box, don’t do any of these:
- Do not punish your cat by rubbing her poop or pee in the face.
- Do not shout at the cat and carry her to the litter box to teach her a lesson.
- Do not put your kitty in a room with the litter box without doing something to her elimination problem.
- Don’t use an ammonia-based cleaner when cleaning your pet’s mess since the smell encourages your cat to return to the same spot.
If you have any concerns about your pet’s litter box habits, talk to your vet Middletown, DE about it.
