If you have a cat, you already know how unpleasant it can be to keep the litter box clean. But did you know that cats can be trained to use the toilet? It's true, and you can do this without buying any special equipment! Cats learn very quickly, and before you know it, you can toss that messy litter box away forever. Here's how to get started.

If you are working with a kitten, first you will have to train it to use the litter box. This is a very simple process. Place the box in the bathroom next to the toilet, and then, after the kitten eats, put it in the box and scratch its paws in the litter. Cats naturally use dirt, and after a few attempts, the kitten will go right to the litter box. Once the kitten is trained, you can begin the toilet training process.

  1. Place the litter box next to the toilet. The cat will become comfortable going into the bathroom, and the transition from litter box to toilet can begin.

  2. Once the cat is comfortable with the box being in the bathroom, you will need to begin to raise the height of the litter box. Gather up some old phone books. Start out by putting one book under the litter box. The cat will quickly learn how to jump up to reach the box. After a few days, add another book. Your goal is to raise the litter box to the same height as the toilet. Don't rush the process. The cat needs to be comfortable with each level that the box is raised.

  3. Begin mixing torn-up newspaper into the litter. You won't be able to use cat litter in the toilet, and the cat has to get comfortable with using paper before the final transition can begin. Gradually increase the ratio of paper to litter.
