I recently bought a new litter box from Peewee with their pine litter, which is supposed to fall through the tray holes. Initially, my cat adjusted well, but now she regularly poops on the floor right outside the box. I think the pee smell is too strong for her, and she doesn’t scrape the litter properly. I clean the box daily, but it’s not helping. Any suggestions to make her feel more comfortable in her litter box?
If she was using it fine for two months and this is a sudden change, I would suggest a vet visit to rule out a health issue. If everything checks out, consider switching to a litter she actually likes. Maybe try something like World’s Best?
Use a different litter. Some cats are picky. Use the old litter she liked to avoid her learning bad habits.
Mine are incredibly picky too. They can’t have a smell, and the box has to be cleaned often. Switching to what she prefers might be necessary.
I’ve hesitated to call the vet because I thought changing things might help. I wanted to stick with the pine litter to fit the expensive toilet, but if it’s not working, I’ll have to consider alternatives.
