| Litter Box Z'zzzzzz Hoping someone might know why my Pancakes feels oh..so comforatble sleeping in his litter box? Pancakes is almost 5 months old, housetraining is going alright. He uses his litter box at night while he is in his crate and early mornings, just to pee in, he will never mess in his litter box, guess he would rather hold it for the grass! Over the past 2 weeks Pancakes has been getting cozy in his litter box...not sure why?? He doesn't mess anywhere in his crate, he loves his bed that is in his crate but we still find him in his litter box from time to time?? It's cleaned everyday, and he only pees in it but I don't understand it!!!! Does anyone have any advise on how to stop him, or why he finds his litter box so great to sleep in! We can hardley wait to take it out of his crate all together and just have him go outside!!! Mistified

| lol as cute as that is, I would not be happy either. Maybe the box is too clean? I would try leaving it a bit, see if he still sleeps in there when he can smell urine.

| Kimbo used to LOVE his potty pad. It was his favorite place to play and lounge despite my repeated redirection. A clean pad was his favorite. I finally broke him of the habit by placing a similar shaped blanket RIGHT NEXT to the pad. I let the pad get pretty soiled and the blanket was kept very fresh. It didn't take him long to figure out that he preferred the cleaner area. Now I don't have to keep the pad soiled. It can be perfectly clean and he doesn't play on it. |
