I'm fostering a momcat and her 2 about 6-7 week old babies. Believe me, I know they won't make the box everytime at this age. One of them, I think the male, is pooping next to the box. I did the old "put the poop in the box so he knows to go in there" trick. But daily I have 2 poops next to the box. Any tips or should I just be patient? Also, there is newspaper on the floor under and around the box. I put it there to try and save my carpet. I'm starting to think because they're not at the "cover it up" stage, he thinks that next to the box is okay. It's also runny because they're weaning I assume. Do you know of any other ways to convince him that IN the box is the way to go?
