Most kittens learn the basic ABCs of litter box lessons from their mothers by about four weeks of age. It’s a case of kittens see, kittens do, in their quest to mimic the actions of their wise moms. Kittens who are orphaned or weaned away from their mothers at a very early age may be clueless about litter box etiquette. Or they may just be slow learners.

WHY CATS LOSE THEIR HOMES

The National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy offers a comprehensive look at why cats are relinquished to animal shelters. When looking strictly at behavioral reasons, house soiling was the top reason, coming in at 43.2 percent. Overall, this council reports the following top reasons for cats being surrendered to shelters:

Human lifestyle (too many cats in home, allergies, personal problems)

Housing issues (moving, landlord issues, inadequate facilities)

Behavioral problems (house soiling, issues with other pets)
