Can zee kat learn how to use the toilet?
We have embarked on the odyssey to teach our kuppy (part kitten part puppy) to use the toilet. My lovely wife Kerry hated our kattan Butter's litterbox, so we decided to potty train him. Yes dear sacpaws peeps and animals we're trying to teach the cat how to use the toilet.
So far so good. I have to preface anything else I write here with the note that our cat Butterscotch is probably the most adaptable cat I have ever had in my life, since he can travel with no problem and adapts to each new situation without any fuss. We found some relatively simple but effective instructions on how to teach you cat to use the toilet online. We have progressed through the steps list below. The one's in italics we're still working on. 1. Move the cat's litterbox next to the toilet. 2. Raise your cat's litterbox to the same height as the toilet. 3. Place a metal bowl in the toilet filled with litter. 4. Use less and less litter until there is none in the bowl. 5. Fill the bowl with water. This has been a challenging stage because Butter does not like to go with an audience, so helping him with 'positioning' while he goes has been challenging so he has pooped on the floor a couple of times, but we're keeping at it remembering that we won't ever have to empty the litter box again! 6. Remove the bowl*. 7. Your cat is now toilet trained. *If you have a small cat balancing on the edge of the seat may be difficult, so after they learn to do that you can get them one of those snap on toddler size seats to use at home. Most of the suggestions I've read said to not get the toddler seat until the cat gets the hang of using the regular toilet seat so as not to confuse them if they must go somewhere else while being boarded or visiting a different house. You can find more detailed instructions at http://www.karawynn.net/mis... or by googling cat toilet training. We'll keep a running update on Butter's progress. Now if only we could teach the dogs :). 1 comments from 1 users

How funny - I read about toilet training your cat awhile back but my cat is way too independent to go for something like this! Tell us how it goes!
