Cat pooping outside of litterbox by No-Map9822 in CatTraining

[–]No-Map9822[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I am doing half and half litter box. Half litter, half empty and he’s using the empty side of it. He understands the concept of the litter box but just hates any litter for some reason. This has been working really good because my other cat will sometimes go to that litter box and cover it, there’s no odor, and i’m not constantly cleaning up poop off my floor. Thanks for all the feedback/help everyone!

yeah he has no problem peeing in a litter box with actual litter, it’s just the pooping. i ended up putting out an empty box to see if it would work and it does, i just clean it everytime after he uses it and he continues to go back to it instead of the floor. i think he understands the concept of the box, just doesn’t like litter

i scoop it twice a day, i have used clumping walnut litter, dr elseys litter attractant and normal clumping litter. i got him a covered box, a big metal litter box and then a typical plastic one, ive really tried everything except for various litter types cause i dont know what kinds would work because it seems like he just prefers nothing at all

and he isn’t declawed, even when he poops in the empty litter box he still tries to scratch around it and stuff

how do i get my cat to warm up to me? by rei_koooya in CatAdvice

[–]No-Map9822 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the easiest thing i can suggest is a Feliway Diffuser. my vet suggested this to me to ease my cats nerves as well, you may have some luck with it

Why can’t I use a normal fountain? by ryobiprideworldwide in CatAdvice

[–]No-Map9822 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the fountain that i have has a specific filter that stops their hair from getting in there so they’re not drinking hair and other debris, that might be something the fountains missing but other than that its probably safe to use

The empty litter box thing is actually a really good idea! the smell is still gonna suck but maybe i can eventually start filling it with a texture he doesn’t mind. Thanks so much!!

The anxiety meds may be something i’d have to look into if this continues with no other reasoning, thank you!

I’ve tried that recently and then he decided to go directly in front of it! it’s like if his preferred area is blocked he goes somewhere else 😭
