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?

While everyone has their own way of cleaning their cat litter box the most common way it to use a litter scoop and remove all the impurities from the litter and throw it away. Some people also have automatic litter boxes that have a comb like feature that automatically cleans the litter with the push of a button.

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. :)

Do you have to clean a cats litter box every day?

It depends on: how many cats you own, and the number of litter boxes you own. The pet stores and adoption centers advise you to have one box for each cat, plus one more. You need to clean them every 3-5 days depending on the circumstances listed above. Answer I have two cats, who willingly share one box. I use scoop away and so clear the clumps every 2-3 days, adding litter as needed. You definitely need a litter with good odor control and willing cats!

Why is your cat not using litter box?

The litter box may not be clean enough for the cat or the cat feels uncomfortable in the litter box; a litter box should be cleaned every day or every second day, depending on how many cats you have. Maybe the cat does not know where the litter box is, if you move the litter box and don't show the cat its new location the cat won't know where the box is. The cat also mightn't be trained to use a litter box properly and might need a little help using it. Also, if a cat is very old, they mightn't realise they have to use the litter box or they do not have time to get to the litter box before they urinate etc. . The cat could also be sick.if your cat is just a kitten then the box might be too clean the kitten must smell where the toilet is.
