Where should you place the cat's litter pan - Catherine - 12-29-2022 Apparently this is a complicated question. The fact that most of us don't give it much thought might explain why so many cats skip using the box. https://www.dailypaws.com/cats-kittens/behavior/common-cat-behaviors/where-to-put-your-cats-litter-box Cats are picky about their food and water. We shouldn't be surprised that they are picky about litter boxes. I can see why a cat wouldn't want to go down into the basement to some odd spot behind a dryer. I can understand their need for privacy. It does take some thinking about. Where can your cat have privacy, but still be conveniently nearby. Litter pans should come with detailed instructions. Good luck finding the perfect spot.

Seriously though, you picked obviously convenient places because they are convenient. Most people I know seem to have their litter pan in a spot the cat likes. Maybe most of the people I know are in tune with their cats. If you are the one cleaning the litter pan you don't want it in an awkward place. The same would go for food. It would be messy to have the food and litter in the same place. You want it to be handy to the place where you store the food. I never had any problems when I had cats.

Overall, it's important to find a location for your cat's litter box that is convenient for both you and your cat, while also considering their privacy and comfort. RE: Where should you place the cat's litter pan - Catherine - 03-02-2023 Cats are not that much different than us. We don't want our bathroom in an inconvenient place and your cat doesn't want the litter pan in an inconvenient place. If it is in the basement behind the furnace, I don't blame the cat for sometimes going somewhere else. The idea of multiple litter boxes for multiple cats is good. No one wants to wait in line to use the bathroom. Neither does your cat. |
