I had a cat that NEVER used the box....I asked everyone what to do.. and I got a BUNCH of ideas..Some sound crazy... but I did it anyway! But then again, if it's behavorial, then changing the litter is going to do nothing.
I have, used top soil, news paper, sawdust, sand, clumping litter, clay litter, litter called "Attract" it's supposed to have a smell in it to make them want to go in the box, any combination of any of the above. I have changed colors of litter boxes,
*yes colors... I was told cats like blue litter boxes the best*
I had 3 litter boxes in a room no bigger than 8 x 12, and shut her in the room. Put her food where she went potty, used every cleaner on the market and any home made mixture I have ever heard of, changed cat food. All of this... for three years... and nothing ever changed. AND she was an only cat!
I did everything I could to not let the hubby know about accidents, but when she peed on my side of the bed, and I had to sleep in it so hubby didn't know and get mad at her.... I knew I could do no more.
I trapped her as a feral kitten in a neighbors barn and had no choice but to release her back to the outside... maybe that's why she never used the box. She wanted to stay "wild"
