 It does work! April 22, 2000
26 out of 26 found this review helpful
We bought this book about 8 years ago, and used it to successfully train our two 6-8 month old cats (age uncertain, from a pound). We learned the hard way (i.e. we thought we could just do the parts of the book we wanted to) that the book's advice IS valid. The cats MUST be fixed first, and you have to let the cats learn at their speed. Plus, we were not successful until we had weaned them of perfumed litter first. With persistence, they learned well, and were able to learn that other toilets at other's homes, in hotels, on moves, etc. are all the same thing. We haven't had to buy litter since, and love the lack of cat litter smell in the house.

I followed the book and my cat was trained (it took more than 21 days) -- it is a wonderful method!But praise is important, even to cats -- when I went in the hospital for a couple weeks and she was left alone alot, she backslid and has never accepted the idea again. Now we use the electric cat box -- another great idea!

I was skeptical about trying to toilet train my then-four-year-old cat. But with plenty of patience and persistence (and a few unpleasant setbacks), it did work. It took about four months, a dedicated bathroom, and the alternate method described in the book, but it was so worth it. We have not had a litter box in our home since then, and that was four years ago. When my cat had surgery recently and could not jump, I gave her a temporary litter box, which she took to immediately. However, once she recovered, and I removed the litter box and pointed the way to the toilet, she returned to her toilet-trained habits. I know she would prefer a litter box but she knows the toilet is what she is supposed to use and she does that consistently. It took a bit longer (a few years) for her to realize that all toilets are for the same purpose, but now that she has figured that out, she is ready for a road trip!
I was amazed! April 13, 1998

I was skeptical whether this book would work, but thought we would give it a try. Now, it's 21 days later, and NO MORE LITTER BOX! Great book!

This is great for apts. or to eliminate the litter box. You just really need 2 bathrooms to do it properly.
