Why is my cat not using the litter box

“What should I do if my cat doesn’t know how to use the litter box? Every time it poops outside, the stench is overwhelming!” Many poop collectors must have encountered this trouble. How to teach kittens the correct use of the litter box? , how to avoid the problem of indiscriminate defecation and urination? In fact, the method is very simple.
Cats should be born using litter boxes. Cats have the instinct to bury their feces to prevent enemies from tracking them. In most cases, as long as the cat is put on the litter box, they will naturally start to use it, but why is the litter box not used?
Disease problems need to be ruled out first! Almost all diseases of the urinary system and some reproductive/nervous/endocrine systems may cause changes in urine output and painful urination in cats. Let the cat have the illusion that going to the toilet in the litter box will cause pain, and thus refuse to use the litter box. If a cat is in heat or a strange cat enters its territory to mark its territory, it will also urinate randomly. If it is in heat, you should choose to undergo sterilization surgery as soon as possible at the appropriate time. If the above possibilities are ruled out and the cat does not use the litter box to go to the toilet, there are several possibilities as follows.

1. The scavenger did not introduce the litter box to the cat correctly, and the cat was unable to associate the litter box with excretion problems.
The scavenger can use a paper towel to get some of its excrement into the litter box, so that the cat’s litter box has its smell, and then grab its paws and dig into the cat litter. The smart little guy will definitely know what you are doing. Intention~

2. The litter box chosen by the scavenger is not suitable for the kitten. It does not like this litter box!
If the cat has obviously gone to the toilet in the litter box, but then urinates randomly. When the cat wants to go to the toilet, take the cat into the litter box and observe whether the cat shows any resistance to the litter box. For example, he always refuses to enter the toilet, takes a long time to decide the position of excretion, puts his front paws outside the cat litter box, smells the smell of excrement for a long time after use, repeatedly rubs the walls of the cat litter box, etc. If your cat is resistant to the litter box, your cat may simply not like the litter box or the litter. The litter box should be selected according to the size of the cat. Large cats should use a large litter box, and small cats can use paper boxes instead. The litter box needs to be at least 1.5 times the size of the cat, and the height allows the cat to enter and exit freely. Place it in a quiet corner of the room. If your cat has the habit of peeing on the sides of the toilet, you need to consider whether the litter box is too small and needs to be replaced with a larger litter box.

3. Areas contaminated by feces were not thoroughly cleaned
The place where the cat peed must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Cats are sensitive to sour smells. You can put orange peels that they hate in the place where the cat has excreted. A more effective way is to spray biological enzymes on the place where the cat has peed. / Enzyme cleaner (urea decomposer) uses protease molecules to decompose uric acid in urine and evaporate it. It is a very effective component in removing uric acid. In this way, kittens will not urinate in the same place again after treatment~
When the cat scavenger correctly finds out the reason why the cat does not use the litter box and solves it, the kitten gradually reduces the behavior of urinating and pooping. The poop scavenger must give them appropriate rewards~ When the cat develops the habit of removing the litter box When there is a positive association that good things will happen when the cat litter box is used in the toilet, learning to use the cat litter box will get twice the result with half the effort~
