10 Weeks Old Kitten

[Animallover12344]

My kitten has recently discovered the fun in digging in her food and water bowl. She gets food and water everywhere! She also like to play in the litter box. How can I break these habits? Or will she grow out of it?

She will grow out of it except for the water. Many cats have the need to "clear debris" from a pool of water like they were outside. You may need to get a fountain. When she sees the running water, she will drink it instead of playing in it.

Yes and no. My 18mth used to take her food for a walk but she grew out of that. She still splashes her water everywhere when she's cranky. Let her know when she's naughty but hyper praise. Whenever she's eating and drinking properly praise her. It may be silly but praise as much as possible.
