How to Train Your Cat to Use the Ezi-LockOdour Dual Layer Litter System Like a Pro.

Training your cat to use the Ezi-LockOdour Dual Layer Litter System can be a game-changer for maintaining a clean and odour-free home. However, transitioning from conventional cat litter tray to the dual layer system can be a challenge. This guide will help you and your feline friend master the art of using the Ezi-LockOdour system whether transitioning from a usual tray or managing multiple cats.

Why Choose the Ezi-LockOdour?

The Ezi-LockOdour system is designed to provide a comfortable and private space for your cat while effectively controlling odours. It offers open type design, hooded design and extra-large cat litter box, making it suitable for cats of all sizes, ensuring they have enough room to move around comfortably.

Step-by-Step Training Guide

Introduce the Litter System Gradually

  • Place the Ezi-LockOdour system in the same location as the old tray to minimise confusion.
  • Allow your cat to explore the new litter system without any pressure. Cats are naturally curious and will likely investigate on their own.
  • Try moving some clumps and solid waste form the old tray to the clean Ezi-LockOdour system as this will help them to recognise their new toilet.
  • Sometimes stopping cleaning the old litter tray may help the transition. Cats like being clean, so this would make the Ezi-LockOdour system the most appealing option.

Familiarise Your Cat with the hooded cat litter system (If your feline friend prefers more privacy)

  • Start by removing the hood initially. This helps your cat get used to the new box without feeling enclosed.
  • Once your cat is comfortable using the litter system, reattach the hood. This gradual approach helps them adjust to the enclosed space and to the hooded cat litter system

Use Positive Reinforcement

  • Reward your cat with treats and praise whenever they use the new litter box correctly.

Avoid scolding or punishing your cat for accidents, as this can create negative associations with the litter box

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  1. Changing Too Many Variables at Once
    When transitioning to a new litter system, avoid changing the litter type, location, and box style all at once. Gradual changes help your cat adjust more easily.
  2. Not Cleaning the Box Frequently Enough
    Cats are very particular about cleanliness. Ensure you scoop solid waste regularly and change pads weekly, and pellets monthly.
  3. Placing the Litter Box in Inconvenient Locations
    Avoid placing the litter box in high-traffic areas or near loud appliances. Choose a quiet, accessible spot where your cat feels safe.
  4. Ignoring Signs of Discomfort
    Pay attention to your cat’s behaviour. If they seem hesitant or avoid the litter box, there might be an issue with the litter type, cleanliness, or location.

Training your cat to use the Ezi-LockOdour system can take some time and patience, but with the right approach, your cat will become a pro in no time. Based on a consumer test conducted by Unicharm, EZLO has a 99% transition success rate* when the recommended steps are followed correctly. Remember to be patient, use positive reinforcement, and maintain a clean and inviting litter box environment. Your cat will appreciate the effort, and you’ll enjoy a cleaner, fresher home.
