I've had cats my whole life and have never ever had problems litter training one. I'd just show them the litter box a few times and from then on, they'd just go in it.
Recently, I got a new kitten -5 weeks old- and I am having problems litter training her. Granted, she is so young (too young to be away from her mama, but she was orphaned). I'm trying to be patient, but she is going where ever she happens to be at the moment. She is a happy, excited to be alive kitten and she plays/runs around like a crazy-woman, but when she has to Go, she just goes.
I've calmly and repeatedly taken her and shown her the litter box (so many times!!!!!!!) and sometimes she goes in it when I put her in.
Does anyone have advice that might help the baby learn to always go in the box?
Note: One problem is that she can climb Up but doesnt know how to get Down yet, so she has a tendency to pee on the bed or chair. I've been making ramps all over my house, lol!
