How do I get my 2 year old cat to use her new litter box?

I just bought a new litter box that came with these small pellets to use instead of regular cat litter. I set it up next to her old box and sprinkled some pellets into the old box like the instructions said. So far she hasn't used the new box (it has only been one night) but, she will go and sit or lay down in the new box. Should I let her do that, or will she continue to think that her new and improved litter box is just for relaxing in? I Need her to use this new box, as I live in a small trailer and don't have a good spot for the box. I'm tired of the smell and mess the other litter box makes. Any other suggestions on how to get her to understand that she needs to use the new box? I know it may take a few days, but any thoughts you can share about how to make this easy for my precious baby Jade?


Thanks.

How do I get my 2 year old cat to use her new litter box?
put some dirty litter from the old one in the new one, so she'll smell that it's for peeing in. then, remove the old one. leaving her two options will cause her to use the old one.
Reply:transfer some of the poop from the old litter box in there and even put some of the old kitty litter on top... just a small layer. She may lay in it for awhile, but I would do that and just take the old one away... she will know what it is for even if she does lay in it. I have usually had no problems transfering litter boxes once the cats know what it is for.
Reply:place her in the litterbox and get one of paws and dig for her to show her what to do by doing that, do it like 3 times a day . if she starts to pee somewhere else grab her and place her in the tray and do the paw thing again.





i have 6 cats( 4 strays) and 3 from pet stores and we have used this method every time. we live on a big property so having thay many is only good for the rats lol
Reply:Maybe she doesn't like the new litter. Cats are picky. Have you tried the scoopable kind? It feels like clay litter but is easier to clean.


Maybe this new litter smells funny? Is there an unscented version?


Try mixing half of the old litter with half of the new litter until you can convert to the new litter.


Good luck!


Peace =^..^=
Reply:Hi there this may sound yucky but if there is any leftover kitty feces in the old box and you have a scooper put some in the new box and remove the old box completely then watch her and she should use it just as she did her old box. Best of luck:)


This too weird for baby names?

I'm not even considering kids now, but I love to come up with names! I love to read (see nickname) and thought it would be cool to name the middle name after something to do with books! Is this weird? OK.... I came up with:


BOY: Bradley Darcy- Darcy after Mr. Darcy in P%26amp;P. It never made sense to me to name a GIRL Darcy.


Owen Mitchell- Mitchell after an elementary school teacher who encouraged me to read some great books.


GIRL: Jade Sophie- After Sophie in The Da Vinci Code... LOVE that book!


Arielle *insert* here is where I am stuck. I can't decide on Raven, after my fave poet Poe, or Keira, after Knightley from my fave book-to-movie remake P%26amp;P. Some help! Which sounds better?

This too weird for baby names?
I like Keira
Reply:Raven. First of all, it sounds better with Arielle, and secondly, that version wasn't half as good as the A%26amp;E version of Pride and Prejudice.
Reply:I'm guessing you'll read a lot more books between now and birth, so play away, but when it comes down to a real kid, don't pick names of things/people you like this year or figures in pop culture. In a few years they may seem really silly to you and everyone else.
Reply:I like the name Aerie. I don't know about a middle name, though...
Reply:Just remember, if you give your boy an oddball name, you are setting him up to get his *** kicked daily in school.
Reply:Personally I dont' think either of those sound good together. If you are stuck with those names though...Arielle Raven sounds the best but Arielle Keira is a definate no! and no I don't think its weird. I am not pregnant either and I think of names all the time...and I get a lot of my names from books and movies.
Reply:although keira is a beautiful name some how raven fits better did you think of switching them around as keira arielle
Reply:I don't think it's weird at all unless you name the kid "Book"! :) (Though Booker's a relevant name.!)
Reply:Jade Sophie sounds great! i love that name! I actually think if you are going to use the name raven that you should make it her first name and Arielle as her second name. for a boy Bradley Mitchell would be a great name. the only reason i did not like the name darcy, is because it is a girls name, but its a very nice girls name.
Reply:Not a fan of the names so much. Bradley is a good name, but the middle names dont go!!
Reply:My opinions.. Poe might be an okay name. Darcy, not so great for a boy's name. And Arielle *insert*... How about Dawn? Dawn is so lovely and it will shed a beautiful light on the Arielle name.





The rest of the names sound pretty cool. I like to think of baby names too.... But I'm not pregnant. *sigh*





What do you think about Darce instead of Darcy for males?
Reply:bradley is cute, but not with darcy.
Reply:Arielle Raven has a ring to it.
Reply:Aura, Fawn, Star
Reply:darcy is a girls name.. but if u like the names thay are great
Reply:I think there nice
Reply:I love unique names. Keira/Kira I love. I prefer Kira though. I hate the name Arielle (due to personal reasons). Not crazy after Owen or Mitchell. Darcy I don't like. Bradley I could live with. Jade Sophie is gorgeous. What about Sophia Jade? That flows better.
Reply:I like Raven because naming someone after something written by Poe gives the name more power and substance than naming her after an actress that will probably fade by the time you're daughter is a teen.
Reply:I love the name darcy for a girl instead of a boy.
Reply:keira
Reply:you dont have to carry the name so think about it in the long run.


but those are not to bad of names

Cloe Jade or Taylor Jade?

Baby names for a girl. The last name is Nichols. Cannot decide which to choose. Which one sounds the best?

Cloe Jade or Taylor Jade?
hey why not throw them all in together with 2 middle names, I like Cloe Taylor Jade Nichols, who says you have to have only 3 names
Reply:I really like Taylor Jade (Chloe Jade reminds me too much of Bratz-my daughter watches the show-because two of the four are Chloe and Jade - I think Taylor and Jade are both pretty names! Congrats on the baby!
Reply:I'd say Taylor Jade. I don't really like the spelling you've picked for Chloe. It looks somewhat incomplete. It looks more like it would just be said "clo" than "clo-ee".
Reply:I like Cloe Jade. I love the name Cloe. It sounds cute and girly but also sporty. Its a name for a well rounded person. Congrats and good Luck!
Reply:I think that Taylor Jade sounds beautiful!! They go together so well together, it just flows! Sound like a models name! Beautiful!!! Congrats!
Reply:Chloe Jade Nichols sounds better than Taylor Jade Nichols, i think Chloe's also a prettier name. :) good luck.
Reply:I like the name Cloe better than Taylor It also sounds better with the last name!
Reply:Taylor, most definitely. Cloe sounds too... popular.
Reply:#1 Jennie F. she can spell it however she wants and #2 I think Taylor Jade is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Reply:Taylor Jade


Congrats........
Reply:Taylor Jade, its very pretty. Cloe always make me think of Bratz dolls, but then I have 7 and 9 yr old girls LOL
Reply:Cloe Jade sounds more feminine; I'd go w/ that one.
Reply:taylor. but not jade.
Reply:How about Chloe spelled this way?





Good luck with the baby
Reply:I like Cloe Jade better.
Reply:Taylor Jade is my pick!
Reply:Taylor, or Cloe, but not Jade!
Reply:taylor jade all the way!!! i have a really cute cousin named taylor lee!!!!
Reply:i like taylor...chloe is sooo popular now...not only by humans but pets too....
Reply:Chloe Jade- thats cute :)
Reply:Chloe, is how it is spelled.
Reply:Chloe Jade





my daughters middle name is Jade =)


Isn't Jade Goody supposed to be representing the "common" brit? Why is she acting like a racist bully?

She's calling Shilpa Shetty a dog, but by looking at her facial feature she was born a fetal alcohol syndrome baby..

how is this long poem talking about the diff stages of life i wrote it give me a feedback upon reading it ,fast





The Truth About Life





A bundle of innocence,


Oblivious about the pricky thorns .


A piece of heavenly caution ,


Unfazed by the imperfection .


A bird flying in the air of red love ,


Unaffected by the importance of time .


Is a baby’s life .





A symbol of boisterous nature ,


Keeping the internal pragmatism closed eye .


A laugh of innocence at other creature ,


Feeling nothing for another’s feel .


A flow of questions as a preacher ,


Dealing with nothing answerable .


Is a child’s life .





A glint of fear for tomorrow ,


Dwindling to find the future .


A search for importance with a sorrow ,


Jumping to unseen conclusions .


A work for tomorrow without any borrow ,


Trying ways to stop time .


Is an adolescent’s life .





A hunt for a position ,


Vibrating for one to another to find stability .


A power to face rejection ,


Holding on to the mist of god .


A want to be god’s best creation ,


Improving imperfections all time .


Is a young adult’s life .





A stamina for working sun to moon ,


Preaching suggestions every time .


A jaded soul longing for a free afternoon ,


Speaking unplausible false truth .


A wait by his family in a room ,


Waiting for their sun to arrive .


Is an adult’s life .





A touch of the lazy comforts ,


Growing high love for family .


A respect in the eyes of others ,


Covering the body with a smooth armour .


A leaning towards god at the edge ,


Finding unmeaning in meaningful things .


Is an elder’s life .

My brother in law write poetry and has had about 7 books published and he's no p00f. Your poem seems to be about life and beliefs, growing up as a child and heading into adulthood and maturity. I enjoyed reading it!
