This article is written based on practical experience on how to train
cats do their business in toilet and not elsewhere or at any unwanted
places.
Step 1
Get two aluminuim cake trays about 8" x 10" and place on each
corner of toilet.
The tray costs about S$2.50- $4.00
each. Most Cats like to do business at the corner and so place the trays
at the two corners of the toiet.
Step 2
Keep the cats in the toilet for about one week during sleeping time, night
time or for most of the days initially to force they do their business
in the toilet.
Cats are intelligent animal. They
will not do their business anywhere in the toilet. Chances for them to
shit or urinate into trays are very great. Even they shit or urinate elsewhere
in the toilet , it is all right, because they are doing it in the toilet
anyway.
Step 3
Cats prefer to sleep on high ground. So we put something high for them
to sleep or rest in the toilet so that they will not be near the tray
of shits or urines.
Do not place newspaper or clothes
in the toilet. They will cover the shits or urine with newspaper or clothes.
Step 4
If one cat urinates or shit into the tray, the rest of the cats are likely
to follow. If they do it outside the tray, transfer the shit or urine
into trays and keep it for a while for the cats to be aware and to understand
that the trays is for urinate or shit.
Keep them for while in the toilet
with the shit or urine for them to smell and to learn, and dream the place
for shitting or urine. After a few hours , let them out and flash
the shit or urine into the toilet bowl.
Step 5
Ocassional release them out of the toilet to play and eat during the one
week confinement period, and observe them how they do their business.
You will notice some cats know
how to go their toilet to do their business before the one week period.
If the one week period is not sufficient, do it occassional to ensure
all cats do their business in the toilet.
Note :
For your information, all my three cats do their business in the toilet
100% percentage for almost 3-4 years. All three cats go to the toilet
to do their business. Two shit into the tray but one outside the tray.
All urinate into the trays, and occasionately one or two jumps to the
basins to urinate.
We have not spent any money on litters. Once they shit or urine, we just
flash it into the toilet bowl.
