What to Do When a New Cat Won’t Use the Litter Box
A cat arriving in a new home is stressed and may ignore the litter box, mostly because the box carries no familiar scent to mark it as a toilet. The fastest fix is to keep the cat's original box, or — for a cat that was shipped — confine it with a box in a small space so it learns by scent. Also make sure the box sits somewhere quiet and private, holds the litter it knew before, and is not shared with a resident cat.
Why Your Cat Keeps Entering the Litter Box
A cat that repeatedly visits the box but produces little or no urine is likely blocked — a medical emergency. Causes range from salty food and a dirty box to stones or tumors obstructing the urethra. Get an ultrasound and X-ray promptly; delayed blockage can cause kidney failure or a ruptured bladder.
How Often Should You Change Cat Litter?
Change the litter about every seven days for a cat with normal stools, sooner if it has loose or frequent stools. Scoop daily, disinfect the box with a mild pet-safe product when refilling, and pick a low-dust, lightly scented or unscented litter — tofu litter is a popular, flushable choice. Letting litter sit breeds bacteria and parasites and can drive the cat to soil the house.
Why Use Cat Litter

How Often Should You Completely Change Cat Litter?
Generally, fully change the litter when it drops to about one-third of the original amount after 1-2 weeks, but adjust for the cat's age, health, season, and litter type. Poor-quality litter that clumps poorly or sticks needs sooner replacement. Always wash and dry the box before refilling.
Cat frequents the litter box, produces little urine, and has blood in the urine
Frequent urination with little output and blood is a classic sign of urinary blockage, possibly from bladder stones, urinary tract stones, infection, idiopathic cystitis, or tumors. If the bladder is very full, seek veterinary care for catheterization and fluids.
