Just ordered the kit from amazon!! Fingers crossed it works!! I'd be really excited to get rid of the litter tray!

Hello, you can get these in Pets at Home

Litter Kwitter Toilet Training Kit for Cats with DVD by Doogie's | Pets at Home

Ours our doing really well at the mo! It's on the floor at the moment and next week we move it onto the toilet to start the real training!

with schrodinger we use something similar to this and half fill it with oko plus toppping it up as we remove the clumps.

We did have a large covered one (well it looked huge when we got him as a kitten, seems tiny now) but with his runny rear end we found that he would step in it more often due to the constrictive space and him being a boy and thus totally lacking common sense so we tried the large open box which helped a great deal. With the amount of litter it can hold the pyramids he can make are truely impressive and put the sandkings (outerlimits) to shame.

re. the litter kwitter, i think once we have schrodo sorted with his runny tummy i think we'll try it out. i find using oko means theres a lot of dust that you have to keep on top of. goodluck toilet trainers !

We've moved the litter tray into the bathroom so we will start the first stage of litter quitting soon!

Excellent!! We put the litter kwitter on the floor in the bathroom. We left it there for just over 1 week. Last night we moved it from the floor to the toilet for the first time.

Both seem pretty happy with it and have used it on the toilet for number 1's and 2's. Hurrah!

I think my 'litter on floor' OCD will have to be relaxed during this training! Its everywhere.

I thought id give you all a quick update on Phoebe and Paddingtons progress with using the Litter Kwitter.

VERY pleased with them so far. Litter Kwitter is on the toilet, still on the first stage but both cats using it without encouragement. They really have been fab, especially when i read the hell people have had to go through even to get their kitties to this stage.

Only 1 problem, Litter Kwitter in bathroom, bath also in bathroom, mummy in bath soaking after a long day at work, kittie does GIANT poo in Litter Kwitter.......mummy out of relaxing bath in 30 seconds due to the pong :( mummy has shower instead.

i just spat my cup of tea reading that :c)

Now there's a picture that's stuck in my head!!!

Sorry, but I couldn't help but laughing. I'm sure it wasn't terribly funny at the time, though.

Just to let people know, the tip on the LitterKwitter website about filling your bath and sinks with water, to stop them being used as a littertray does not work for MCs!!!

I am training Iggie and Ted at the moment and we are on the amber stage (medium sized hole). The boys are quite happy to jump up to pee, but the battle of wills regarding their number twos is killing me. Last night, after chasing the little devils for two hours, after begging, cajouling, bribing.... I gave up and went to bed, filling up the bath and sinks with a few centimeters of cold water.

Well, I woke up this morning to two lots of cat poo floating in the bath and a soaking wet bathroom floor!!!

It's only been two weeks since we started, so I am not giving up hope yet, but God they must hate the thing, if they're willing to stand in an inch of cold water to poo rather than use it!
