Litter Box Training Kittens: Step-by-Step Guide

Most kittens learn quickly - their instinct to bury waste is already there.

Choosing the Box

  • One box per cat plus one extra
  • Uncovered boxes preferred by kittens

Choosing Litter

Unscented clumping litter. Avoid strongly scented types. 2-5cm depth.

Training

  2. Praise when used
  3. Clean accidents with enzyme cleaner immediately
