About a week and a half ago I found a stray kitten, he's probably about 15-16 weeks. I've tried multiple things trying to potty train him and NOTHING will work. I've done the whole putting the poop in the litter box and showing him. I went out and bought him his own litter box without a hood on it, I bought him Feline Pine (which he seems to like better then the cat litter) and still he refused to poop in it. Right now I have him in the bathroom with his food on one side with a blanket next to his food and a litter box on the other side of the bathroom and he chooses to poop on the blanket even though his food is on the blanket. I figured if I took the blanket out maybe that would work, but I doubt it since he pooped in the bathtub today. I'm running out of ideas. I'm thinking of putting him in the cat carrier that I have so he only has enough room to lay down and eat, so then he'd be forced to go in the litter box for a day or two. But I feel bad enough having him in the bathroom. I'm hoping he's not sick, because I definatly don't have the money to take him to the vet, but if it's necisarry I guess I'm going to have to take him to the local non kill shelter. I'm just so attached to the little guy after nursing him back to health. If anybody can help me please do!
