Cats have a lot of genetics, but are cats born to use cat litter? The answer is no. Cats are not born with the ability to use cat litter. Kittens that have left their mother cats or adopted kittens will not use cat litter.
Kittens follow their mother When cats are together, they need to learn the survival skills of their mother cats, including using cat litter to cover their own poop to cover up the smell and protect themselves. If a mother cat is taken away from her too early, she may not use litter.
