litter box

Hello! I’ve heard so many things about sphynx webbed toes and litter… I’ve tried the pellets, I’ve tried walnut and we’ve successfully used Worlds Best corn litter for years but post pandemic they just have changed the formula and now it’s DUSTY. The dust now gets into the crevices of the...

Hi to all my Sphynx family! I’ve been so curious about investing in the self cleaning liter? Has anyone tried it yet? Is it any good ? Also what type of liter is recommended. I love this blog because I’ve been researching all morning in our blogs about what liter is best for our sphynx babies...

Hi so I got my first Sphynx kitten (and kitten period) a few days ago. So far things are going great, I love the little guy and he seems to be a fan of me. One issue though is he has pissed and shit on my carpet. That’s not the end of the world and I’m not mad at him or anything it’s not his...

I’m in need of some litter recommendations. I have two girls one is five months old and the other is a year and a half. I have 3 litter boxes one of which is a litter robot. I’m using worlds best in the litter robot and the other two boxes have pine pellets and the breeze box pellets. My...

Several times now I’ve found my boy just hanging out in one of his litter trays, and I find it so weird haha! He has two and I keep them very clean but still seems so odd to me...

Hey guys! New to the sphynx fam but curious as to all of the things that everyone uses when it comes to their sphynx and more importantly.. their butts. As I'm transitioning my baby onto a new food (Instinct limited ingredient/turkey) from royal canin gi my baby's poop is moosh. Although I can't...

Hello, fellow sphynx owners{= I have a big problem with my hairless lady. She is 2 years old (we adopted her from a certified breeder around 3 months ago) and she just doesn't care for intimate hygiene at all. I've had cats all my life, she is my first sphynx and though I was prepared that she...

I've definitely posted about this before but here I am once again with the same problem. My bambino Luna will only poop outside of the litter box. This has been ongoing for almost 2 years - we have had to put down plastic on the floor that we can easily clean because she won't poop in the box...

Hi guys! My brother has 2 DSH that are about 3 years old and he recently transitioned from traditional litter box to the tidy cats breeze system. My 12 week old sphynx was there visiting and he used the breeze box with no problem, did #1 and #2 in it. So, being annoyed with litter (tidy cats...

Another topic I wanted to post about is toilet training...has anyone tried and/or been successful at this? My NaKid is too young for it still but I have the "LitterKwitter" in my amazon cart as soon as I feel he is big enough. I already have his litter box next to the toilet and plan on raising...

Hi, this is my first time posting here. I am a very experienced pet owner and have owned many dogs, cats, reptiles, horses and farm animals and I live in England. I’m seriously considering purchasing a Sphynx but I have one question - is it possible to train a Sphynx to go to the toilet outside...

I'm considering getting a Litter Robot since I'll be adding to my cat family. Wanted to know if anyone has one and their thoughts/experiences before shelling out $500+. I currently have the PetSafe ScoopFree with the blue pellets. No litter solution is perfect, but this one hasn't been bad for...

Hello all, I will be taking my baby home sometime around April 13th and I am beginning to pick stuff out and place orders. I'm not going to go too crazy until I get to know my boy and his preferences, but I will need some basics. Not gonna get any clothes just yet since he will grow like a...

Hi all! So I have a 3 month old sphynx who joined our family Thursday, he is litter trained and used the tray fine the next two days, we got a new tray Saturday morning and he hasn't used it! This morning we found poop and wee on a chair so he hasn't used the tray at all, and still hasn't all...

Okay, so I'm about to ask some newbie kitty litter questions that may be borderline dumb. (It's okay, I'm a firm believer that there ARE such thing as dumb questions. :p) When it comes to cat litter, what is the standard protocol for usage and maintenance? Do you just scoop and scoop until the...

We’re looking into getting another litter tray for our 2 boys but we live in a really small apartment so finding another suitable place has been an issue. Initially we were toilet training them but Aphex decided he wasn’t a fan, so we stopped. Now we have a large litter tray and a small one in...

Hola all! So I’m less than one month away from gotcha day. Like many of us, im over the moon with excitement to bring home my first sphynx! I’m stocked up on all kitty things, with little orders of goodies coming in anyway now. However, I feel slightly anxious in anticipation of the whole...

Hola again Lairians! I need some help choosing some products/goodies for my soon-to-be-kitty! I'm new to the sphynx breed, and I would really appreciate any tips from the veterans. :) Below is the list of items that I'm currently shopping for. I've picked out a few, so if you have any comments...

In the last 2 weeks, I have gradually switched Nuru's food from Blue Basics to Royal Canin Sensitive Digestion. His stools have been much firmer and I have noticed that he is more energetic. I am happy with his progress so far but he remains struggling with both constipation and diarrhea. In...

Hello Sphynx Lair-- In March I adopted a 5-year-old male Sphynx, Nuru, that had been kept by neglectful owners. Since receiving him, I have had several problems with litter box training, "poop tail," and chronic diarrhea. Upon adopting him, I learned that Nuru had Irritable Bowel Disease. I...

I thought Tut was constipated because I hadn't seen him use the litter box in 2 days but what happened was he started USING THE BASEMENT AS HIS LITTER BOX! :rage: I usually let him down there (only if i am home) thinking he is just running around and climbing but I won't be doing that anymore...

Good morning everyone! So a little background before I get into the dirty stuff.. I have a 2 year old male [dobby] and a 13 week old female [laveau]. I am gone from 6am to 6pm Monday through Friday and I clean the kitty box before and after work and after they use the bathroom while I am home...

so Astrid plastic box smells DISGUSTING. So that's being tossed lol but I was thinking a metal one would work better to keep clean and the metal wouldn't absorb the smell. Do any of you guys have one or know where to get one?? Or where to get big baking pans that have sides??

Wasn't sure where to put this on the forum.. I am having trouble getting samples from my babies this time. My girl cat is fast and my boy sneaky!! They are a little over 3 1/2 yrs old if that helps. They have two litterboxes and they are both inside of foldable cloth crates with netting on...

I think I posted asking about litter suggestions ages ago, but I am looking to switch. It's suprisingly very difficult to find helpful articles about this, considering everyone's situation is different, so I'm hoping my fellow Sphynx mama's can help! Right now I use World's Best Cat Litter. I...
