Best way to train a cat.... (crystals, litter, kitty, litterbox)

[Latina7]

My grandson found this beautiful cat, and he took it to his new apartment. He is having difficulties training it. It seems to be an adult cat. Any suggestions? Thank you,

1. Take cat to vet, spay or nueter.

That would be the first step.

If cat already is neutered or spayed, second step would be checking for crystals or a urinary tract infection.

Third step if it isn't a medical problem, would be to assume kitty doesn't know how to behave indoors. Confine him to a smaller space like the bathroom with a litterbox. Look into a litter called Cat Attract- it has an odor that helps the cat know they should use the box. You can get it at Petsmart. Give kitty more freedom as he starts using the box reliably.
