Hi,my kittens are only using the box in the bathroom. I have two kittens by the way. I put a second box in the basement where they also spend time,but they aren't using it. I can tell they've been walking around in it,but haven't left any deposits yet. If they are only going to use one box,should I take up the other or just leave it there in case of "some day"......is it normal/fine to only have one box for two kitty littermates? I know that the "rule" says I should actually have three boxes. I use Tidy Cats multiple cat litter and they've never had an accident...yet. I always hate to brag,afraid they'll prove me wrong! Anyway, I buy the litter in the 20 lb pourable plastic container(it rocks over having to deal with the bags). I didn't realize that there was 3 or so different types depending on the lid color. I got the blue previously and I bought a seperate container for the basement litterbox,but it has a different colored lid and the litter looks like it has little blue pellets in it...I'm assuming deodorizers???So I wonder if since its just a tad different from what they are using in the bathroom they won't use it for that reason....are kittens actually that picky? I hate to waste all twenty lbs of it,but I'm leary of using it in the bathroom box cause it might make them want to stop using the box......horrors! I'm a pretty tolerant person,but reading some of these threads stating where their cats have peed/pooed isn't good for my heart!!!hee hee. I can't imagine a cat peeing on clothes or the stove.....obviously I've been lucky!
I clean the box morning and night so it always stays clean. I've noticed they aren't going as often as they used to and they aren't as stinky or farty either. All good things,obviously.
I know this isn't really a "big deal" but I would like ideas. All the people I ask say they only have one box whether they have 1 cat or 3 with no problemos!
Thanks.
