      My mother loks after a neighbours cat very ofyen during the day.
Frankly, the neighbour is quite neglectful of the cat hence my mother's
intervention. The cat isnt tray trained and it appears to be between one to
two years old  It does wait by the door to be let out when it wants to "go".
My mother has her own cat which is fully house trained. Is there anything
that could be done to train the neighbours cat?

                    Thanks

It may also be she doesnt want to use another cat's tray, and prefers
to either go to her own or at least outdoors.

Do you mean your mother goes over to the neighbour's house or that the cat
comes to your mother's house?

get the cat its own tray.  If that doesn't work, you can try a litter called
"cat attract" which is supposed to be wonderful for that.  A lot of outdoor
cats are used to digging in the ground, so she could also try putting dirt
in the box for a few weeks, then sprinkle some dirt on top of the litter for
a little bit, and see how it goes.

My cat was tray-trained by the time I got her at 8 weeks.  When I
brought her home, all I had to do was show her the litter box.

The cat needs it's own place to go, too.  Cat's are territorial that
way.

I've got two cats, one has it's box in the back room and the other in the
basement. The basement cat would poop outside the box, took me a few days to
realize that she preferred two boxes, #1 box and #2 box. It's a little more
work but now everybody's happy.
