You can train a cat to use the toilet, there are some people here on the forums that have posted pictures of their kitties going like that. Hopefully one of them will see this post!
I dont think a cat can flush though!!!!! It does not have thumbs!!! (Remember the movie Meet the Parents...haha.)

my sisters cat flushes her toilet... its the funniest thing in the world. Are you implying that I am a liar and the cat does not flush the toilet???
anyways... my sisters cat reaches up standing on his two feet and pulls the handle down. I dont see why a cat would need thumbs to accomplish that??? (Meet The Parents is a comedy movie... not a cat documentary)
^^^ whats up with that??!??!??!?

Bjohnson, I seriously hope you are joking!!! I will leave it at that, I will not turn this into a locked thread. I guess you didn't get my joke. Thanks.bjohnson said:

Training your cat to use a human toilet is an involved process that can take a while. I have seen the litterboxes that you put on top of the toilet at the start. I don't have any personal experience doing this, so I'll leave it to others to tell you the steps involved.
I know cats can definitely flush. Ginza does this from the floor and pressing down with his front paws too like BJohnson's sister's, or the preferred method is to jump up onto the water reservoir and step down on the lever with one paw. It definitely startles me when I think I'm the only one in the house.
EDIT: I just wanted to clarify that 1. I don't train my cats to use the toilet, they use litterboxes. 2. Ginza flushes for fun to amuse himself.

What I meant by this was I hope someone else posts with ANYTHING to say besides "blah blah blah, so you callin me a liar blah blah" This thread is not about me or anyone but lemon and her needing advice to toilet train her kitty. Thank you superkitties for posting SOMETHING. Sheesh.jonsgirl said:
Yes I am a woman. I am 22. My computer is on all day and if you feel so upset by me and my posts that you will not be in the forums, then I will happily leave a window open to catforum 24/7. Thanks!
Mod's/ Admins I am so sorry for I dont know what. Feel free to delete my posts because I know everything after my first post accomplishes nothing. I was trying to be civil but I guess that's all it was, a try. I guess I have to start PM-ing responses or something because I never intended to offend anyone and have never done so on this forum. (At least I dont think I have. :wink
Thanks.OK everyone calm down! We may have to clean up this thread a bit.
bjohnson/jonsgirl - I think things may have been taken out of context between you two. Happens offen on the internet and in email - you can always tell how serious people are in plain type, without facial expressions and body language. I don't think either of you are really saying a cat can't do one thing or another. Cats can be trained to use the toilet - and for some it's easier than other. I also imagine a cat can flush the toilet - but I also imagine most times it's for their amusement (to watch the water) than to get rid of waste. It may be hard to train a cat to flush to remove waist, but that doesn't say it can't be done.
lemon - yes, a cat can be trained to use the bathroom. I tried to train Moby, and it was slowly working. But I gave up once I got a covered litter and could move the litterbox out of my small bathroom. That's a pic of my cat Moby above, using a litter tray. There are other posts about this on the forum if you search for them, as well as resources on the internet. Flushing may be hard though - as I said above. It also depends how finicky your cat is in regards to bodily functions - some have set rules they poo by.
