Did you realize that there are actually good and really BAD places to put your litter box?
Yes, location can make the difference between whether your cat uses it or not. And you KNOW how important it is for them to use it. As you may know, inappropriate urination in the house is the most common and frustrating behavioral problem of cats.
So where to put kitty's litter boxes (or where NOT to put your litter boxes) ?
Poorly positioned or location of boxes is a common reason for cats to urinate inappropriately.
There are 4 "Bad" Places to Put Kitty's Litter Box:
1. Damp cellars, noisy locations, and high traffic areas are common locations that cats DON"T like.
2. Inconvenient locations such as the basement are often distasteful to some cats. Also, locations where the access can be intermittently blocked (such as the basement and you sometimes keep the door closed) can be a big problem.
3. Locations next to a washer, dryer, or furnace that may intermittently make noise will scare some cats and cause them to have a litter box adversity to that location for the rest of their lives.
4. Locations where other pets like dogs might bother them can be a big problem to cats.
So please go check your litter boxes to make sure they are not place in any of these four "bad" locations.
