do anyone have any ideas to train a cat to go to her litter tray instead of in another cornor.?


Answers:
Make sure litter tray is kept very clean. Cats do not want to step into dirty kitty litter.
If dirty litter is not the problem and If your talking about a kitten, putting the kitten into the litter once or twice should do it. If we are talking about a grown cat, well, thats a problem. You will have to catch he/she in the act (or preferable seconds prior to the act) and physically put the cat in the litter. This will have to happen many times and if it is and adult, it may never completely break the habit.
One last thing, if the cat was trained and is now using the floor, we could be talking about a urinary tract infection. Not using the kitty litter is his/her way of letting you know they are sick.
if you pour pepper where your cat poops, they will stay away from that area
try a different brand of litter.
There are type of sprays available off the shelf from any pet shop. Ask them, they would be able to help you.
Although it may be inconcenient, and rather smelly, for a while place the litter tray in the corner that the cat prefers. and when the cat gets used to using the box, you can move the box to where you want it. I've just done this with my kittens and it worked.
You could also try putting catnip into the tray
Let the cat stay in the closed toilet with the litter tray for at least 2 days. Once they get used to the litter tray they will not do it anywhere else. Of course, ensure enough food for your cat. If they do it someplace else after you let it free, bring your cat to the litter tray and make it smell the place. This is to remind/reinforce them. Try, it works on my cat.
ermm.my dad done like this.
it sound fierce but it helped actually..
when my cat litter at one of the corner,my dad take the things and put it in my cat nose..
i feel angry for the first time, but i help me a lot.

n other recommandations is, u put the tray at one corner ur cat usually litter. and it teach ur cat how to use that tray..

hope u try it..
You need to make sure that the litter tray is always imaculate. and also a little tip.. See where the kitten does go to the toilet. Place her food in that area. Cats are very clean and will definitely not poop near the food.
Hello to you and purrs to your kitten!

By far, the most entertaining way to litterbox-train a kitten is to start using it yourself. and the kitten will eventually get the idea. Since most people aren't ready for this, you need to just keep scooping up your kitten and putting her in her litterbox . hopefully she will get the idea.

As gross as it sounds, if she doesn't get the idea, borrow some kitty poop and clumped pee from a friend (a close friend who won't think you are weird for wanting this) and add them to your kitten's box . your kitten will smell kitty poo and pee and (hopefully) get the idea!

Good luck . one of the many joys of kitten parenthood.
If you are using a covered litterbox, get rid of the cover. A covered box tends to allow odors to build up, also the cat may find it claustrophobic.
Use a quality litter such as granulated and keep it scruplessly clean. Change the litter often and wash the box thoroughly before putting in the clean new litter.
Put the box in a quiet place, although, initially you may have to put it in the corner the cat is currently using. When the cat starts to use the box, inch it gradually to where you want it, however, you should thoroughly wash the area he/she has become accustomed to using as there are probably odors there that the cat now associates with his/her toilet area.
DON'T, I repeat DON'T rub the cat's nose in poo; that will never work and only make the cat angry. Check the cat's poo and if it looks very dry, the cat may be having difficulty when he/she `goes' and could be a reason for not using the box. If that's the case, a quality pet food store can give you a liquid medication that you put on the cat's nose (the cat will lick it) to help soften the stool.
Good luck and be patient; I had a similar problem with my cat, but she's now back to using her litterbox on a regular basis.
When he poo's, put the poo in the litter tray, and then him. It always works
Move the litter tray to the place where she goes to poop.
I would suggest having several litter trays to start off with .keeep the cat confined in one room for a time, should do the trick
Move the cat litter tray to the spot were its pooing then see if it goes in the tray
Just keep putting the cat in the tray. everytime you get up pick her up and put her in it. If you have cat litter, then get her paws and rub it into the litter as then she will get the feel for it. Just keep doing it and she will be fine
get rid of it
