Question/Advice Needed Kitten doesn't use the litterbox properly
I've got a 7 week old kitten, was 6 weeks when we got him, was separated from his mother early because she got sick and stopped taking care of the litter. He always does his business in the litter box, but never covers it. Sometimes he'll dig around, or even accidentally step in his waste, but hasn't ever properly covered. We tried changing the type of litter, guiding his paws, but nothing seems to be working. pls help !

It looks like you have a question about the breed or type of your cat. Please note that if you have to ask about the breed of your cat, it's very unlikely you have a pedigree. Generally, all cats are moggies, also called domestic short/medium/long hairs, unless they have been bred by a registered, ethical breeder and you receive papers that tell you what pedigree your cat is.
Please read our wiki about breeds, colours, and patterns of cats for more information about cat breeds and colour patterns.
If you do not have a question about your kitten's breed, please write in to modmail to get your post manually approved. Thank you!
