small cardboard box with a small entry way cut in the box; fill it with a small amount of non-clumping cat litter / sand / dirt / newsprint and a previously used newsprint, cotton ball or tissue that the kitten eliminated on.
Place a very small litter box or It’s that easy, kitten will start using the litter box in a very short time (there is more on this topic below if you are having issues).
In Bangladesh I used a washing tub and cut a U in the side to act as a litter and lined it with shredded newspaper.
Special Note: Never use clumping cat litter, a kitten could ingest it and suffer severe health problems, even death. If non-clumping cat litter is not available, use shredded newspaper without colored advertising section.
Kittens are litter trained between the ages of 3 to 4 weeks.
TRAINING YOUR KITTEN TO GO TO THE WASHROOM OUTSIDE
If you catch your kitten going to the washroom inside immediately pick it up and take it outside. The kitten should stop going to the washroom when you pick it up. If you see bathroom like behaviors – gently move the kitten outside. After a number of times the kitten should start going outside.
