Litter box avoidance & related - include spay/neuter status Advice on getting cat to use the litter robot?

Post image

Hello! I'm looking for help on getting my boy to use the new litter box we recently got. I've kept it on sleep mode so the sifting wont scare him, he has seen our other cats use it just fine, and is able to be inside of it without a problem but he just won't use it. I've tried Dr. Elsey's cat litter attractant and that hasnt helped.

Any advice appreciated!

I got a Litter Robot 4, since I have 4 cats, and the other 3 use it perfectly fine. But my tuxedo boy doesn't use it, instead preferring to poop in the tub 🤢. He used our old standard litter box without trouble, so it's definitely the change of the box. I've used treats to get him to walk up to it, and he's even fine being inside of it, but he just won't use it. I've tried Dr. Elsey litter attractant and that hasn't helped either. I've kept the robot on sleep mode so the automatic sifting won't scare him, as he's the most timid of all our cats.

I'm really at a loss for what to do here. Any tips/help will be greatly appreciated!
