I wasn't sure if this should've been posted here, but I need some advice on my kitten. We got him from the humane society yesterday, and he's been a real sweetheart to us. However, I believe that my cat is scared of the litter box. He does not go around it , and when I bring him to it he panics and tries to get away. Obviously he is not using it. The other side of the problem is that I'm fifteen, and I fear that if we don't get this problem sorted out soon then my parents are going to send him back to the humane society faster than a bat out of hell. And understand, I have no problem cleaning up after him, taking complete care of him; he's my kitten and I'm determined to be a good cat owner, and no matter what he does I love him. I just really need some help, because I don't want to lose him. Could yall offer some advice, please?
