2. Prepare training equipment. You can make it yourself or buy it. Generally, there are 3~4 training discs with different specifications, which are used at different stages.
According to the cat's situation, you can choose a variety of training discs, which can make the cat have a slow transition and make it easier for the cat to accept.
To train cats to go to the toilet, use the training plate 1 first. In order to prevent cats from being unaccustomed to changing cat litter suddenly and affecting the training effect, paper cat litter or tofu litter should be gradually added to the old cat litter of cats, and the amount should be gradually increased every day until it is completely replaced with new cat litter.
2. After the cat completely adapts to the new cat litter, put the cat litter basin next to the toilet and be familiar with it for 2~3 days. Put the cat litter on a training tray without a hole in the middle of the trainer instead of the old cat litter basin. At this time, you need to put the old litter box where the cat doesn't know. Let the cat adapt to the training board for 2~3 days.
3. Put the first stage cat training tray (no hole in the middle) and cat litter on the toilet. Generally, it is necessary to open the toilet cover and put the training tray under the toilet seat. It takes about 7~ 10 days for cats to get used to jumping on the toilet.
The second stage of training the cat to use the toilet: let the cat get used to changing the training board into one with a hole in the middle so that the cat can see the water in the toilet. In order to adapt to the cat, this process needs to last for about 2 weeks, which can be postponed appropriately according to the cat's adaptation, but remember not to enter the next step in advance when the cat has not fully adapted.
The third stage of training cats to use the toilet: take off the trainer, replace the training plate in the second stage with a bigger hole in the middle, and gradually reduce the amount of cat litter. The trainer can't be removed until the cat can defecate on the trainer without cat litter. This process takes about 4 weeks. After this stage is successfully completed, it means that your cat has been trained successfully.
Matters needing attention in training cats to use toilets 1. Cats bury their excrement when it is convenient, which is their innate nature. Training to defecate with toilet may not be the way cats like, which may cause psychological unhappiness to some cats.
2. After the cat learns to use the toilet, be careful not to cover the toilet at home, otherwise the cat may pull on your quilt to show you anger.
3. For elderly cats with joint problems, it may be more difficult to jump into the toilet, which may even lead to joint injuries of cats; You can put a small ladder next to the toilet.
Cats are very clean animals. In the process of training, they should clean the bathroom and training tray every day to prevent the smell from causing the cat to refuse to use it.
Not every cat can learn to use the toilet. Some cats can learn to use the toilet quickly, while some cats with more personality don't want to use the toilet at all and don't study hard. Even cats with bad temper will go to their owners' beds to relieve themselves during training to show their anger. People just don't want to go to the toilet. Why should they be forced? Therefore, be mentally prepared before training, and it is best to cover the bed with tarpaulin or close the door when you are not at home.
What if the training fails? If the cat is trained to use the toilet in the right way, the result still fails. You can try again once in a while. Cats of different ages have different cognition of things, and their learning ability will be different with their age. You can wait until the cat is older to train.
Training cats to use toilets requires great patience and care. During this period, cats need to be given more time, so the chances of success will be greatly increased.
