10 week old kittens not litterbox trained2007-11-25 11:29:23

I got 2 kittens yesterday and last night I found a #2 on the carpet. I couldn't tell which one of them did it, so I carried both of them to the litter box. This morning there are 2 #2's on the carpet, so obviously the two of them did the deed. I'm thinking of relocating them into a bathroom when they're not supervised but I'll let them come into the room when I'm in there supervising them (the bathroom is connected through the room). Any suggestions on how I can speed up the litter training process?

Also, I've noticed their box doesn't have any urine in it either. I need help fast! Thanks!

This is what i've done with my past cats. IT works! You put them in the room with the litterbox the whole day (Along with food and water and a window of corse) and then they will eventually learn to go in the litterbox.HOPE THIS HELPS! :)

It's natural for cats to use the litter box. Most don't need to be trained, so I don't have much advice. Keeping them in the bathroom for now is a good idea. Everytime they make a mess, pick it up and place it in the litter box. After a while they should get the point of where it goes. Good luck. :)

new kittens should never be given the run of the house for at least a week... they need to be confined to the room where their litter boxes are..

rule of thumb: 1 litter box per cat.. and ideally 1 more in other part of the house.
