Why Won't my Cat Use the Litter Box?

There are many reasons why your cat may not be using the litter box. The most minor and easily fixed reason is because the box is dirty. Another reason is that the cat may not be comfortable using the box, especially if it is located in an area with little privacy and a lot of activity. If a cat has to share a single litterbox with other cats, it may decide to pick its own spot to do its business rather than share. The most serious reason that that a cat won't use the litterbox is because it is sick. Urinary tract infections and diabetes are illnesses that would cause a cat to go somewhere other than the litterbox. When in doubt, always check with your cat's vet.
