Cat Training

[Pbartender]

Often, yes, but not always. In fact, I've read that a cat not using a litter box all of the time is one of the biggest reasons why owners give up or abandon pet cats. One of our pet cats had that problem. You can train a cat to stop having accidents but it's not necessarily quick or easy and many people don't have the patience for it. You also can clean up cat urine and spray with the right cleaners (buy the stuff designed for removing pet odors from a pet store).

You also have to remember that cats can be very picky about their litter boxes... For example, once, we'd moved our cat's litter box to a new spot in the house. For weeks, he'd hold it in as long as possible and then we'd catch him using almost anything for a toilet, except his litter box. Eventually, we realized the only that had changed, and put the litter box back where he liked it, and the "accidents" stopped.
