okay, help with stray cat please.

im going to get the closest thing to a litter box i can find, then ill put my other cats litter in it, and put her in it.

EDIT: lol, she is clawing and eating the ants in my room, and a mosquito. lol. my dog went crazy when i brought her to the litter box. and she started growling and hissing, both of them actually.

That ought to work. A young cat won't probably be overly sensitive to the other cats' smell in the box. A new grown kitty might. Let's hope this kitten spent enough time with her mom to know how to go to the bathroom properly in dirt or litter. Surely that'll be instinctive.

i dont know if she was even with her mom for the 6 week period that cats are supposed to. she still sucks on her tail, and she didnt use the litter box.
hhmmm, she just went to the bathroom now, but wont use the litter box, she prefers the "run and poo" procedure, now ive got a mess to clean up =(. but i love her anyway =D

She'll use it when she needs to, and she may hold things in a while till she gets less nervous. Also, if she hasn't been fed enough and given enough water, she may not have much bathroom business to do yet. It occurs to me that if she's this young, she won't probably yet know much about marking her territory with her bathroom doins.

You may hear her scratching in there while you're trying to sleep tonight. Sometimes the little ones try and sleep in the box. They want a safe little warm nest.

I've never had a cat that sucked its tail, but I expect that's just a kitten habit that's seen in cats who were weaned too soon. I vaguely remember reading something like that.

We brought in a feral kitten 3 years ago and he still wants to go outside to potty. He pretty much hangs around the property and comes in to eat and nap when it's warm out.

I'm assuming you have a litter box and bed set up and food and water dishes So, maybe the kitten has a sibling or mom it's wanting to be with? Are there any others that were with this cat?
