hi guys, i’m new here, i just really need some advice.
i (23m) have a 3 month old female kitten that i’ve had for about a month and a half now. she came to me from a friend who’s cat had kittens.
i have three other cats (all female), and they all get along. my kitten and my other youngest (2 female) are inseparable.
my kitten has three litter boxes throughout the house to choose from. she came to us mostly box trained. now she will literally walk past two freshly cleaned litter boxes to go and pee behind the washing machine. or she’ll pee in my clean laundry. or in a cardboard box we have on the floor. or on a paper bag we have on the floor.
my mother is telling me that if i can’t get her potty trained then i have to rehome her and i refuse to do that. i’ve tried some of the online advice i’ve seen and it just hasn’t been working. for now, when i go to school or work, im gonna keep her secluded in my room again with food and water and a litter box but that isnt viable long term.
any advice is welcome, i really love her and dont want to give her up
