Steps
Pick a quiet spot away from food, water and noisy appliances. Cats like a box they can reach easily and see around.
Fill the box with 5 to 8 cm of litter sand. Too little makes digging hard and too much gets kicked out.
Show your cat the box and place them in it gently after meals. Scratch the litter with your fingers so they see it can be dug.
Scoop the clumps and solid waste once or twice a day. Put waste in a bag and tie it before binning.
Stir the remaining litter with the scoop so wet patches mix in and the surface stays level.
Top up with fresh litter to keep the depth at 5 to 8 cm. Sand litter settles as your cat digs.
Empty the whole box once a week or when it smells. Wash it with warm water and mild soap, then dry it fully.
Refill with fresh litter and put the box back in the same spot. Sudden moves can make cats avoid it.
Tips and common mistakes
Wash your hands after handling litter, and wear gloves if you are pregnant or have a weak immune system.
Never use bleach or strong cleaners in the box, as the smell can put cats off.
Have one box per cat plus one extra if you can fit them.
If your cat stops using the box, check for stress or illness before blaming the litter.
Questions
How often should I change the litter completely?
Once a week for one cat is a good rule. Change it sooner if the box smells even after scooping.
Can I flush cat litter down the toilet?
No. Bag it and put it in the bin, even if the bag says flushable. It can clog pipes and harm water systems.
Why is my cat not using the new sand litter?
Mix some of the old litter in for a week and keep the box in the same place. Sudden changes can put cats off.
