maybe easier to train than if, you only have one toilet in the
house.
You will have to use an aluminum tray to put on the toilet. With
two toilets in the house, you can leave the tray right in the
toilet and not have to remove it when you need to use the toilet
in the house. If you have only one toilet, it is not that
convenient to share with your cat. You will just have to remove
the tray whenever you want to use the toilet. Be sure to leave
the seat down and lid up for the training period. Leave a note
on the toilet for guests so that your cat does not make a mess

with an aluminum-cooking tray. The aluminum tray should be the
right size to fit in the toilet. The seat lid should be able to
close so that the seat lid holds the tray in place. Remember do
not close the lid. The results may be less than attractive.
Start moving the tray closer and closer to the toilet that the
cat will be using. Be sure not to move it when the cat does not
know it is there. Once the litter tray is in the bathroom put a
something about an inch thick under the tray. Magazines are a
very bad choice for this. The magazines are slick and the

every day until the litter box is the same level as the toilet.
The cat will be able to just step into the litter box at first.
As you raise the litter box, the cat will have to jump into the
box. You may want to secure the box so it does not move when the
cat jumps into the litter box.
Let the cat know its there by scraping its claws in the tray.

Continue to leave the tray there for about 3 weeks. During this
time reduce the litter in the tray and make a 1" diameter hole
in the tray. Every week, make the hole 1/2" bigger. If the cat
messes on the floor then the cat is trying to let you know that
you are moving to fast. If your cat is heavy, try using two
trays to hold its weight.

the
process could take up to two to three months. The cat will start
with two paws on the tray. As the hole you put into the tray
gets bigger (by 1/2" per weak) it will move a third leg to the
toilet seat. Finally, the cat will have all four legs on the
seat. Some cats cannot grip the seat very well. If the cat is
the only one to use that toilet, you might put some kind of tape
it can grip to on the seat lid.
