2. Perhaps because it smells bad; hasn't been cleaned in a while.
3. Maybe because they like urinating and pooping outside of their litter box.

∙ 12y agoSome cats are picky on if the litter box is too small, some do not like covers over the litter box, while some do want the cover, some do not like fragrant litters, and most importantly cats don't like to go in a dirty box. Cats are very picky animals, even right down to where they go wee-wee. Just make sure your cats litter box is constantly clean and possibly experiment with different types of litter boxes (or even litters if your cat still refuses to go in the litter box). Also, experiment on where to put the litter box and always make sure you show your cat where the litter box is; put your cat in the litter box right when it was put down in a new area to show them that it is there. I personally converted two closets in my house into kitty litter box rooms, they seem to like the privacy :)

Can i litter train my dog?
Yes, it is definitely possible to litter train a dog. Litter training a dog involves teaching the dog to use a designated area, such as a litter box, to relieve itself. This can be a convenient option for owners who live in apartments or have limited access to a yard, or for dogs who are unable to go outside due to illness or injury. To litter train your dog, you will need to follow these steps: Choose a suitable litter box and litter. The litter box should be large enough for your dog to comfortably stand in and turn around. You can use a traditional cat litter box or a larger plastic storage container. As for litter, you can use a litter specifically designed for dogs or a natural litter made from materials such as wood shavings or paper. Place the litter box in a designated area. Choose a location that is easily accessible for your dog and away from their food and water dishes. Introduce your dog to the litter box. Show your dog the litter box and encourage them to sniff around and explore it. You can also place a small amount of their feces in the litter box to help them understand what it is for. Encourage your dog to use the litter box. Whenever you see your dog exhibiting signs that they need to go to the bathroom, such as pacing or circling, immediately lead them to the litter box. Praise and reward them when they use the litter box. Keep an eye on your dog's progress. It may take a few days or weeks for your dog to fully understand and consistently use the litter box. If you notice that your dog is having accidents outside of the litter box, try to determine the cause and address it. Litter training a dog requires patience and consistency, but with time and effort, most dogs can be successfully trained to use a litter box.

Can a dog use a litter box?
I don't know, but i have had dogs eat my cat's poop before, so be careful! YUM! Dogs can be trained to use a litter box with a short (about 1 inch high) edge, but they do not like to hop over large sides. Also, dogs prefer to go on a "wee wee pad," instead of in litter.
What are some good uses for old bread bags?

Why does your house-trained dog now go inside by the cat litter box and beside the toilet?
It sounds like your dog is marking due to the ammonia smell of the litter box and the toilet. Make sure you clean up with a non-ammonia based cleaner, and keep the litter box clean, or out of the dog's reach. If you can't do that, you might clean the box thoroughly and switch to a different litter. Hopefully that will help. If your dog is an un-neutered male, they are also more likely to mark, so neutering will probably help.
