As some of you know I'm toilet training Cam to potty in the toilet as I HATE kitty litter!!
For the past few weeks her litter box has been a small cardboard box with a plastic liner & litter.
Over the weeks/days I have been adding less & less litter to the box so she would get use to min. litter.
Last weekend I did the BIG change. I removed the litter box & put a sturdy flat box (with a white trash bag covering it) under the toiled seat. Then I put clean litter on top, & the seat acted like a barrier to help keep the litter in the center.
I buggered up as I used clean litter & didn't add some dirty to it so Cam pottied on the floor. So I picked up the poo & put it in the clean litter & sented the litter a little with it.
I also added more litter & Cam hopped up right away & peed!!! :D
Cam has been activally using the new litter box for 2 full days. I have to disinfect the toilet every time I need to use it, but the end result will be worth it!!
I'll try to take pics of Cam testing out her litter box & NOT show details hehehe
I'm soooo happy it's working out so well, I can't wait until my house it litter free :D
EDIT:
oh & I have to clean the litter daily as there really isn't that much litter being used, but I have been leaving small amounts of soiled litter to keep the area sented so she knows thats her potty place.
In about 3 weeks I'm hoping to have a hole (long & thin) cut into the rear with very little to no litter on the box (just sented).. Then as the weeks go by I'll add 2 more slits going up the sides so the box will slowly start to fall into the toilet bowl & Cam will start to move closer & closer to the toilet seat as it's sturdy & her pee/poo with easily go into the toilet bowl.
