- So far so good! I bought the form to fit over the toilet and both of my
- kitties are using the litter in it with no mistakes so far. In a few days I
- plan to start reducing the amount of litter.
-
- I didn't follow the directions quite. They said to train only one cat at a
- time and to do so by locking the cat in the bathroom overnight. Instead, I
- moved the regular litter box into the bathroom for a few days as well as the
- litter in the toilet form. I used the catnip to lure the kitties onto the
- toilet and gave them a lot of attention whenever they went near it. Pixie
- liked it so much after a couple days that she went to sleep in the litter on
- the toilet :) After about 3 days I took away the regular litter box and both
- kitties used the toilet litter within the day. Boy, do they make a MESS,
- kitty litter everywhere!
-
- The only potential problem I see is that they have not yet learned to step
- only on the seat and not in the litter, but I guess this comes later.
