About this course

What it's for

House-soiling is the most common reason cat owners ask for behaviour help, and one of the top reasons cats are given up. Litter Box Solutions starts with health, including the one sign that means an emergency, then follows the steps in cat veterinary guidelines: the right boxes, in the right places, with the right litter, kept the right way, in a calmer home.

What you'll achieve

By the end of the course

  • A medical check done, so you're not fixing the wrong problem
  • A litter box setup your cat actually wants to use
  • Old accident spots cleaned so they stop attracting repeats
  • Less tension between cats in multi-cat homes

Part 1: Before you start

Your rights and responsibilities

Short reading lessons on what the law says about pets and service animals, and what's expected of you as an owner. Each ends with a quick quiz.

  1. Cat care, rules and welfare6 min read

    The rules and welfare basics every cat owner should know before training starts.

  2. Health first: when it's medical, and when it's an emergency6 min read

    Most litter box problems have a cause your vet can find. One sign means go to an emergency vet right away.

Part 2: Training

5 training lessons, about 9 minutes each

Each lesson has an animated diagram of the steps, step-by-step practice, troubleshooting tips, a clear goal for moving on, and a quiz.

  1. Be a detective8 min

    Track where, when and what, so you can find the real cause.

  2. The right boxes, in the right places10 min

    Number, size and location: the three biggest fixes.

  3. Litter and cleaning8 min

    Most cats prefer soft, unscented clumping litter and a box that's scooped every day.

  4. Clean the old spots and make them less inviting8 min

    Remove the smell your cat can still detect, and change how those spots feel.

  5. Less stress, more harmony10 min

    Stress and tension between cats are common hidden causes. Here's how to ease them.
