Cat Talk - Ep2: Going Outside the Box — Why Do Cats Stop Using the Litter Box?

Описание: Litter box problems are one of the most common reasons people seek behaviour support, and one of the most distressing to live with.

In this episode, Alice explains why cats stop using the litter box, why it’s not about stubbornness or cleanliness, and why toileting issues should always be taken seriously. You’ll learn why litter box problems is a symptom of a problem, and how medical issues, stress, environment, and litter tray setup all play a role.

This episode also breaks down common misconceptions: such as assuming it’s always anxiety or territorial behaviour, and explains how to tell the difference between litter tray avoidance and marking. Alice shares what she looks for in consultations, what patterns matter, and why random fixes from the internet often don’t work.

If you live with cats and are dealing with toileting issues, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on, and how to approach the problem calmly and systematically.

Behaviour isn’t random — there’s always a reason.
