I have two small size cat litter pans. Since he has been sick I have kept the litter I have (Yesterdays News) out of them and used some of the hay I think is too old. I dump that every morning and clean the pan. New pan goes in with fresh hay.
Since the day we went to the vet he has been using the pan while in his cage. He seems to have stopped peeing anywhere else in there and just uses the pan. He does leave random poops around his cage, but not many. I read somewhere that is rather normal that there are some poops as he is marking the cage as his.
This is all very encouraging and I am very happy about it..but
When he is out in the pen running and playing, he seems to poop and pee anywhere he wants. I think I might have seen him run back a time or two to pee in the box, but I am not sure. Tonight when I had him out he peed three times on the blanket I had on my lap and pooped left and right.
My question is what can I do to get him using his litter pan all the time and not just in the cage?
Thanks in advance..
