My kitten skips using the litter box at night. She poos behind the sofa, not on furniture. What do I do? I tried spraying
Keep Off on the furniture and the carpet, but it is not working.
I had this problem with an adopted grown cat. I read that they have to be "retrained". We put him in a dog crate with his litter box every night for several weeks. He is no longer crated and is using his litter box regularly now ( knock on wood). Good Luck and Be sure to clean the area he soiled with a product designed to remove animal odors.

My kitten is doing his business on the carpet. He is 3 months old, and I have had him since he was 12 weeks old. When I got him, he was using the litter tray no problem, but I went away and he started messing on the floor. He still uses the litter tray sometimes. I have tried everything and am at the end of my tether. Please help. Thank you.
I would take him to the vet, my cat (when he was younger) started having "accidents" and it turned out he had a urinary tract infection. He never messes on the floor now, but my first move would be to take him to the vet. Also, I know mine is very picky about the kitty litter I buy, I use fresh step, and if I get anything that is scented, like the orange or pine etc. He will try to avoid the box as much as possible and make a mess on the paper I have surrounding it.

My kitten is only a few months old and suddenly stopped using her litter box. My dad is giving me a week to get her to stop pooping on the floor. I need some help.
I just got a kitten a week ago. Her box was in the living room and she was using it great. Three days ago we put it in the kitchen.
