Hello fellow kittyers,
I have had 3 cats in the past, all of whom have been very smart (and painless) in litter training. A couple of weeks ago, I got 2 kittens. One is consistently using the litter box, however her sister (a calico) is not. She uses it only sometimes.
I am confining them to a smaller space with their food, water, toys, and a small blanket. She was peeing on the blanket, but she hasn't done that in 2 nights. However, she has peed on everything else including brown paper bags that she likes to hide herself in. She's used the litter box many times both for pee and poop. It's just not consistent. I can't take my eyes off of her because she'll pee! I have added an extra litter box to no avail. I have a third litter box with a different type of litter. I have praised her relentlessly when she goes in the litter box. Does anyone know how long litter training might take since all my previous experiences have been almost instantaneous? Thanks much for your advice!
