retrain a cat to use the litter box
I have an older cat, and after using an automatic litter box he became afraid. he now uses the bathtub, to pee and poops all over the house. How can i retrain him to use the litter box again? someone told me to use foil, so I lined the bathtub to keep him out, but he moved the foil and went under it. I am desperate because my husband wants to kill him litterly

Oo that sucks. Pets can be a pain sometimes but we love them anyway.
First off, when the cat goes in the tub yell at him. And carry him out and into the litter box. Try to make him comfortable in his new litterbox by being near him and petting him. Watch him all the time when your home. Try to carry him to the litter box every hour, if possible. When he does go in the litter box praise him and give him a kitty treat if he likes those. When you leave the house, keep him in one room with water, food and a litter box. If that doesnt work, try getting a non automatic litter box.
