I have not tried this but they do have a product at Petsmart that makes little ones want to pee on things and maybe if he is like all the other little boys out there he will want to lift his leg on it. Once his smell is on this maybe it will encourage him to use the peeing bottle on the pee pad. You could try this outside and then start bringing it in and placing it on the pad.
Now having said all this, I do think it sends crazy signals when you are trying to do two different things and you are soooooo lucky that he is housebroken but I understand why you would like for him to be comfortable during the day.
Hope this helps. |
LOL! Your girlfriend huh? That sounds like another inside story!!
That is a good idea about the bleach bottle, but he doesn't really lift his leg, he's a squatter when he just needs to pee. He does lift his leg on bushes or other things to mark his territory but he doesn't do that very much at all.
And I have dabbed some of his 'accidents' on the pads (before he was housebroken) and now there are some 'dribbles' on them from putting him in the litter box before he 'shuts the valve' and jumps out. So hopefully he'll catch on pretty soon that he can use the litter box whenever he wants too.
Thats a good idea about the attractant stuff, I'll try that if this method doesn't pan out. Thanks.
