how do i get my cat to stop making GBS threads on the window sill and use her goddamned litter box

this is probably the last forum i ever expected to be asking that in

put aluminium foil on the window sill and anywhere else you would like the cat to not poo poo. They don't the feel of it on their calws afaik.

I know it works for bunnies, ymmv.

put the cat in the box, grab it's paws, and kind of rub them into the clean litter like you are making them scratch it. they will usually put 2 and 2 together and poo there because they naturally want to go in dirt or sandy type things. also scrub down your window sill to get rid of any smells

You basically only to show a cat this once, and they'll get it, if they have any intention of making GBS threads in it. I just showed a kitten this like 2 days ago and he's using the box like a trooper now.

well i had to show my kitten twice mostly because she grew way faster and got bigger then we had expected, so we bought a new litter box to accommodate her size (she was totally missing, pooping over the edge heh) and moved it from the front porch to the basement because she was big enough to navigate the stairs. she wouldn't go down there until i did the scratch in the box process again

I think I only have one cat that knows how to use it correctly. Most of them don't seem to grasp how exactly to cover over what they just did.

I eat every meal in front of the computer so I can be on the internet while I consume my processed food products.

tried this, if it doesnt work im either going to do the foil thing or take her back to the foster mom we got her from and trade her in for the other maine coon they have

i should point out that this cat is like 6-8 years old, its not like this is a kitten whos never been housetrained before

the wife is not down with the foil because the cat likes to hang out there even when she isnt dropping a deuce, but i am seriously getting sick of cleaning up this poo poo

go to petsmart they have a special kind of kitty litter named cat attract. it's all i use with my cat who was problematic for years and has no issues now. it has pheramones in it that do something that make cats want to poo poo all over it.

http://www.petsmart.com/product/ind...oductId=2751734

i've found that if you use that + clean daily and sprinkle some extra on top after cleaning = no pooping. it also comes with a hand book to give you tips on how to get your cat to stop making GBS threads outside of the box too!

I really don't want to, but I'm not going to clean up cat poo poo on my windowsill every day for the rest of my/her life. Giving the cat away is absolutely my option of last resort, especially because I actually like the drat thing, and we're friends with the adoption lady (she went to college with my wife) so I don't want to dump another cat on her just because I'm a bad owner, when she's already buried in them.

tell your wife to fuckin' get over it and use the aluminum foil.

cats get used to shittin' in one place and the more you allow the cat to poo poo in the same place the more it'll poo poo there. Close off access to that area for a while, make sure he knows where he's supposed to poo poo and make sure it's really clean and maybe try that crazy litter that other dude was talkin about.

But really, step zero is 'stop letting him poo poo where he shouldn't be' - close the fuckin window, put aluminum foil there, spray it with that Cat-B-Gon spray, whatever. After a few months he can go back to the window or whatever, but for now it should be off-limits to him.
