I recently bought a large potted plant.
The problem is with my cat. He now feels
that this plant is a good place to go potty.

He is an indoor cat and he has a litter box he
has used for years. Since I got the plant though,
he would much rather use it!

He is slinging dirt all over the place and
I am sure his digging in there isn't helping
my new plant.

Any suggestions on how to get him back
into the litter box without having to
get rid of my plant?

The cat goes potty in the plant, because it's in his instincts. That's were wild cats go, so he just knows that. Think about it, if you were a cat, would you rather go potty in gritty litter that sticks to your paws, or would you rather go on soft, moist dirt?
As for a solution, you can get chemicals that will make the cat not like the plant, but those might kill the plant, or you could just get rid of the plant.
