Answer 2

When we first brought our cat Simba home, he was 7 weeks old, and still not entirely sure about the purpose of a little box (his former owners had several cats who were primarily outdoor cats, so he didnt really have any 'rolemodels') So for the first 2 days that he was with us, i would put him and the litterbox in the bathroom and close the door whenever we left him alone (of course, also with his food and water). When i was home with him, I would put him in the box whenever he ate or drank, and at night he slept in the bathroom with his litterbox, food and water. On the third day, he started going to the box on his own, and never had another accident and he's 2 and a half years old now.

Answer 3

I've raised a lot of cats over the years and the best thing to do is repetition. After they eat, take them to the litter box. After they wake up from nap, take them to the box. Also, if there are other cats who use it, don't clean the box completely out...I know it sounds weird, but if they smell that other cats are using it, they'll know to use it, too. I also put them in the litter box if they have an accident on the floor. It doesn't take them long to catch on. Just make sure you clean up the accidents well or they'll think thats where they are supposed to go since they smell it.  

Answer 4

Just put them in the litter box and take it's paw and scratch the litter with it... I think it just comes naturally to them.... that's all I did when I had kittens before and they figured it out right away
