Ensure the litter box is easily accessible, cleaned regularly, and placed in a quiet area. Address any medical issues if accidents persist.

Here’s a concise guide to preventing litter box accidents with your Sphynx:

Prevention Tip	Details
1. Choose the Right Litter Box	Use a large, low-sided box for easy access. Consider the Litter Robot if your Sphynx is accustomed to it.
2. Keep the Litter Box Clean	Scoop daily and change the litter weekly to maintain cleanliness. A dirty box can deter use.
3. Use Preferred Litter	Start with the litter type your Sphynx is familiar with, and gradually transition to a new type if needed.
4. Place in a Quiet Area	Position the litter box in a calm, low-traffic area to give your Sphynx privacy and reduce stress.
5. Have Multiple Boxes	Provide at least one litter box per cat, plus one extra. This prevents territorial behavior and overcrowding.
6. Address Medical Issues	If accidents occur frequently, consult your vet to rule out medical conditions like UTIs or digestive problems.
7. Gradual Changes	Avoid sudden changes in litter type, box location, or routine. Gradual transitions help avoid confusion.
8. Positive Reinforcement	Praise or reward your Sphynx for using the litter box. Avoid punishment, as it can increase stress and worsen behavior.
9. Monitor Behavior	Observe your Sphynx’s habits—changes in litter box use can indicate stress or medical concerns. Address them promptly.
10. Clean Accidents Thoroughly	Use enzyme-based cleaners to remove odors from accidents. This prevents your cat from returning to the same spot.
