All I had to do was put my kitten in the box and scratch the litter with my fingers. (my kitten was only 5 weeks old) She picked it up right away. Cats are very neat animals and it's in their instinct to use dirt or something to "go" in.

This is one of easiest things to do. When you see your kitten looking around or starting to dig at the carpet just put him in the kitty litter. It's better if the litter box has a hood as cats like privacy. Make sure you take him there after meals. He should have food and water available at all times. Don't put the food near the litter box. Don't move the litter box around. Cats are creatures of habit and do not like change. And remember clean the litter box often.or your cat will not use it.

just get the litter box with a good litter in it. set the kitty in the box and the cat will do the rest. if there is an "accident" once or twice, it's o.k. pick the kitten up and try again. cats are (for the most part) born with the instinct to "go" in the dirt, therefore do not need much training. just make sure you keep the litter box cleaned out everyday.

Put the cat inside the litter box and scratch the sand. If she poops or pees out of the box, put the poop or pee with...- use your imagination- inside the litter box and let the cat smell it. That will do the trick. Be advised, some boxes are too big for very small kittens to be able to climb in in the first few days. I had to improvise a small ramp.

Most kittens will instinctively use a litter box. Make sure the box is low enough for him to get into. Several times a day gently place him in the box so he learns where it is located. Have 2 boxes per cat. Place the box in a place that is easy to find, offers privacy, but isn't in a place that the cat will fell "trapped"--cat's hate that.
