If you are going to indoor train him, I may recommend using a grid system. I have a homemade one which you can find if you look for the post "Grid system" it's under the training forum somewhere, if I get a chance a little later I'll dig it up for you. What you do to start is confine them so that they have a small area, that fits only their bed, food, and grid. They should instinctually go on the grid. As they get better then make the area bigger. What my breeder does is put the grid right in the pen that the momma and babies are in, and most of them learn to go there very quickly, especially since momma already does. When I got Harley at 9 weeks which is still young, but he was already going on the grid 75%. So make sure if you try that you only let them out when you can 100% supervise. I don't recommend letting them run loose in your house until they're quite a bit more reliable. Also any time you see them going on the grid, throw a praise party. so that they know it's the right place.
Goodluck. you can most likely use this same method with the litter pan you're talking about, but I'm not familiar at all with it.
