My kittens eat their cat litter!?

Question

My kittens r 8wks old and im training to their litter box ( even though they dont really nee it)..but they eat their cat litter.. so what do i do?

Answer 1

my 2 month old did the samething she stopped eventually. perhaps yours will too.

Answer 2

Clean your litter regularly. Separate your kittens from the cat ****.

Answer 3

Kittens will commonly do this--it's like a toddler putting everything in their mouths! Just do NOT use scoopable litters until they are older, as it could cause intestinal blockage.

Answer 4

i sugest maybe changing the type of litter
my cat didnt like his litter and he went decided instead to use the bath tub haha so maybe you should change the litter type

Answer 5

they should be fine..you might just take them out of the litter box or make them stop when you catch them in the act. mine did that at first but not long and they were fine.

Answer 6

they really dont know any better at this age ...watch them when they go potty you dont want the litter to stop them up then you will really have a bad problem

Answer 7

try a different brand or deal with it until they grow out of the habit. you can also substitute the litter with rocks or gravel. sand is known to work to.

Answer 8

feed them soft food instead of hard food, they're getting confused between the hard food, and the litter.

Answer 9

they will probably stop eventually. if they're like the kola babies then its necessary for digestion purposes when their young. but good luck. [thats kind of gross :o]

Answer 10

never heard of that
