if you caould find a way tio put the cat box in the toilet and having the cat go in there and then taking it out when the cat gets used to it then maybe it would work

Yes, it is very possible to train a Cat to use the toilet.
A co-worker of mine back in 1971 did the same with her Cat; she had pictures to prove it. (Boy, was that Cat surprised)
You can usually purchase a training device in any Pet Shop for teaching your Cat to use the toilet. The directions are usually simple and effective.
Now, if you could also teach your Cat to flush??

A friend of mine actually did this. Place a double layer of wax paper under the toilet seat and tape it down well. place some kittie litter on top of the wax paper. Lure your cat to this prepared toilet to sort of introduce to him where he is expected to go potty. Make him feel comfortable in the bathroom. Soon he will end up using the toilet to go to the restroom. Just make sure you clean up after him…scoop up the poop etc. Than when you notice he has been using it frequently, slowly start to remove the litter and the wax paper. A friend of mine did this and her cat learned to use the toilet in about 3 days. Just remember to check the toilet before you have guest coming over. You don’t want them to think it may have been you who forgot to flush. Good Luck!

I have a sure- fire way, but it will take time anytime you are trainig a cat it will take time.
I. Make sure cat is completely litter -boxed trained
II. Little by little ease the litter box close to the toilet..Slowly
III. Once the litter box is literally next to the toilet, raise it up
IV, Step by ssstep put it on a phone book, box etc.
V. When it is level with the toiletput it on top of the toilet
VI. Next remove the litter box and THERE YOU HAVE IT

If the kitten was born and raised outside, they may have a tendency to want to maintain those outside habits inside your home. You may find that they might try and use your plants as a litter box. A kitten that was born and raised, for the first several weeks, inside by its mother will have the advantage of its mother’s help in the litter training process, and other domestications. Kittens, generally, can begin to use a litter box at about four weeks of age, and a kitten being raised without its mother or adult cat will take slightly longer to litter train; so, keep this in mind when you begin the task of litter training your kitten.
Place the kitten in the box 1/2 hour after play or meals.
Stimulate interest in the litter by stirring it.
Let the kitten jump in and out of the litter box instead of restraining him.
Place some stool in the litter box (builds associations between litter box and bathroom needs).
Use a litter with pellets as these mask the wet feel.

Cats are naturally a remarkably clean and fastidious animal and will usually learn quite quickly how to use a litter tray. Some kittens can be put in the litter tray and they instinctively go back there but others simply refuse to use the litter tray and will always find a nice corner of the room. The other problem here is that once one of the kittens starts using a corner of the room, the other may think that they should be using it too.
You really need to spend a fair amount of time with the kittens continually picking them up after eating or drinking and putting them in the litter tray. You can also buy a spray that attracts them to the litter tray. Cat urine does not do the carpets any good and if you allow the cat to continually use the corner of a room, you will soon find that the carpet discolors and you can never really get rid of that awful smell.
You could use a “pet behave spray” which is basically a spray that can be applied to any soft furnishing - carpets, stairs, settees etc and will deter the cat from going near as they hate the smell. You will also need to clean the litter tray daily if you have more than one cat. The only solution is perseverance and a willingness to clean up a lot of cat waste before they finally learn where they are supposed to go! You should never scold a young cat for fouling in the wrong place and certainly never rub its nose in it.

Hi Lindsey… toilet training a cat is possible and I’ve trained both my house cats as well as many clients kitties to use the human toilet. However, to be real honest so there are no misconceptions it takes a lot of time and patience — even for a brilliant cat — therefore someone must be there nearly 24/7 in the beginning and when the litter box is removed during the training process. On average cats who are toilet trained take anywhere between 3 months to 1.5 years depending on age, individual temperament and the techniques used. No one technique works for all cats so people have to experiment to see works best. Some of the litter kits sold in pets stores such as City Kitty is fine for very young kittens because the tray is very flimsy and heavier cats tend to find it discomforting so the Litter Kwitter system may be more helpful in this case or a crafty home kit. The website also has videos which shows you how their system works, step by step which is very helpful to know what to expect BEFORE considering to purchase their product. Here’s a fun video of a cat using the Litter Kwitter system:=-2647927142627159521&q=toilet+trained+cat
Some cats who are toilet trained will have accidents around the home because during the training process you have to remove the litter box entirely, which is why it’s important to be home full time during this stage of training as well.
