Since there are diseases a cat can transmit to humans, I would say no, both for the health of the mother and the baby. If you follow the proper precautions that everyone should use when cleaning a cat's litter box (breastfeeding or not), it will be safe to do so. Wear a dust mask (to prevent inhaling the litter dust) and wear disposable gloves. When finished, throw away the mask and gloves, and be sure to wash your hands thoroughly. The litter box doesn't pose any greater threat than the cat does if you follow the safety precautions.

How many times a day do you have to change a cats litter box?

Every other day. ......... Most recommendations are to clean (scoop) a cat's litter box daily. You wouldn't want to use an un-flushed toilet tomorrow, would you? Changing of the entire litter in the box will be listed on the package by the manufacturer. Some litters are more absorbent, like the non-clumping kind, and will need to be changed entirely more frequently. With clumping litter, you should be able to just add some fresh litter every few days for about a month before cleaning out the entire box.


How do you stop my cats from coming in the house and using the bath room what is a good home remedy?

If your cat is an indoor/outdoor cat. You must provide a clean place for him or her to use the bathroom inside as well as out. Get a plastic litter box at a local pet store, put about 3" of litter in the bottom. Most litter box kits come with the plastic pan and scoop to clean it out with. Cats are very clean animals. They are also extremely smart. Show your cat where the litter box is located and it should not take long at all for him/her to know it's there and begin using it. I have six cats; four of which were strays. I have not had any problems with any of them going to the bathroom anywhere other than in the litter box. I promise you will not have a problem if you provide her/him with a litter box with clean litter and leave it in an area where they can access it. You need to scoop out the litter box at least every other day. Enjoy your cats, they depend on you, and provide unwavering love to you. :)


How do you trained bunnies?

You have to litter box train them like a cat. When they're really small is the best time to start. Place a plastic box about twice the size of your bunny, fill it with bedding, and scoop some of its poop in. Put the box inside the cage. This really works. I have a bunny and he is the best. He goes into the litter box naturally and all I have to do is clean it every week or so. If it doesn't work, wait a while. Sometimes a bunny learns slower than other one.

How do you clean a cat's litter box?

I would suggest that you should buy a scooper or a roll of plastic bags that you can use to remove any feces (poop) or urine (pee). Depending on the litter brand, you can flush the litter down the toilet (check packaging for litter) or throw it into the trash can. Every week or so, remove ALL of the litter, wash down the box with a soap with no dangerous ingredients that may be harmful to your cat and rinse it with water and dry it. Then, when it is all dry, fill it back up with two to three inches of the cat litter and you are done! Remember! Always keep the box as clean as you can! Would you like step in your own poop/pee every time you had to go to the bathroom?
