CitiKitty Cat Toilet Training Kit (One Pack + Extra Training Insert)

I follow the instructions. Didn’t work for my cats. But who knows it might work for you.

Useless thing. My cat started to poo and pee on the beds instead.

This product, to no fault of its own, is one that requires so much patience. I saw so many horror stories of cats giving up and using the tub or the sink. My cat did prefer the tub for awhile, so I had to install glass doors and now he goes on the toilet like clockwork. I haven’t had him use someone else’s toilet, so not sure if the concept transfers. But easy product, easy directions, I just suggest going really really slowly (as in, I let each stage last for a month). Pretty stable and he’s 13lb+. Don’t forget flushable litter

Bébé chaton à très vite compris le principe. Après une semaine, déjà 4 anneaux sur 5 d'enlevés et il fait ça comme un pro! Le défi maintenant est qu'il apprenne à accepter de faire dans la toilette même s'il n'y a pas cette odeur de litière.Je suis certaine que tous les chats ne pourront pas aller aussi vite. Il est important d'être très à l'écoute, aux aguets, présent et de lui faire confiance.Attendez d'être en vacances pour commencer le processus 😀

مش وحشة بس قطتي محبتوش

Things to note: this is meant to train your cat to perch on the edge of the toilet bowl and do their business. However they will, inevitably, try to sit in the tray at the start. If you have a honker, I would advise you to reconsider or reinforce the tray (somehow.)THINGS TO HAVE BEFORE STARTING:Flushable litter: non-negotiable afaic. You do not want a future plumbing problem. If you're hesitant about the price of a flushable litter, think of it as going towards the future investment of not having to buy litter for years.Enzymatic cleaner (+citrus/repelling scent): There are going to be accidents. It's pretty unavoidable so its important you have something on hand to discourage them from going there again. Baking powder + vinegar works pretty well but I also used a *heavily* diluted bit of citrus cleaner (Angry Orange) in spots that might seem attractive for him to go (corners, hidey holes, under the toilet, etc.) as a preventative measure. (Be sure to test your cleaner before using liberally as it can cause warping/discoloration.) While the latter is optional, it was a nice bit of insurance.Catnip: While the package does come with its own packet, having a little extra on hand will never hurt just in case training goes longer then expected. (I'm writing this at the end of his training and we are 5+ months.) If you have any packets left over from scratchboards, those work fantastic as they gain interest but (at least in my case) they won't try to eat it.Cat treats: As with all things feline, associating something with a positive outcome is key to making a habit stick. Reward your furry monster generously as needed.THE PROCESS:This might get long-winded(er) but I'll try to keep it simple.- Move litterbox next to toilet and begin swapping out the litter.- When litter is fully swapped, add the tray to the toilet next to the litterbox and fill it with some of the old litter so the scent is carried over. Sprinkle liberally with catnip. (If you're lucky, yours will use the tray even with the litterbox there like mine did.)- Optional: Do training to get your cat to associate the toilet with good things. I would draw him up there with a treat and then give it to him when he sat on there.- Give it a week, pull the litterbox. At this point in time, make sure to remove any "attractive" areas where your cat might choose to eliminate. (Anywhere secluded or blocked off. Mine went a few times in a pile of plastic bags in a corner until the smell gave it away.) Also use the scent repellant on any remaining spots, including underneath the toilet. Would recommend diluting it quite it a bit though as you don't want to put him off the area entirely.- Shower him with treats and praise every time he goes. Try to be around for at least a majority of the time in the first week if you can or at least try to associate the treats/praise with him going in the tray.- Optional: when cleaning the tray, dump the litter (poop and all) into the old litter box and scoop from there. It's easier and it also helps the smells to mix to the new batch going back in the tray.- Every time you pull a ring, especially the first one, treat it like you're starting from scratch again. Make every other place unattractive compared to the toilet with scents and treats. Any time your cat seems to be balking, sprinkle more catnip or lure him up there with a treat. Worse comes to worst, take some treats and your cellphone into the bathroom and lock both of yourselves in there, lifting him onto the toilet until he gets the idea.- Go at your cat's pace. On the box it says "Remove the next ring once they go a week without an incident." For me, even if we met that requirement, I would give it a minimum of 2 weeks on a new ring before moving on. Also make sure to use less treats as time goes by or you'll get a junkie.- Monitor your cat's elimination. No matter what anyone says, you still have to flush the toilet. Make sure he's peeing every day and pooping every 48 hours. If he isn't and a refresh of the tray hasn't worked, by 72 hours you need to either make him go by either locking yourselves in the bathroom or give up the ghost.- Rinse and repeat until the final ring. Every time you refill the tray, use a little less litter and always sprinkle with catnip. You should no longer need treats at this point, though yours might scream at you to come flush the toilet like mine does.TL;DRIt works. Maybe not for every cat but I have reasonable belief that if you're patient, thoughtful and thorough, it is absolutely possible to train them to go on the toilet. For 5 months I basically cleaned that tray bare minimum once a week and the toilet almost every day. My reward is I no longer have to buy anything litter related and I can stop sweeping/vacuuming my floors every morning so I don't have to step on litter.

Mi gato dejó de ir al baño y empezó a vomitar y tuve que regresarlo al arenero.
