How can I get my cat to use automatic litter trays?

Put the current one right next to the self cleaning one. After a week or so remove the old one. Hell get the idea

Cats are creatures of habit, and other people have told me their cat didn't take to the automatic box- I think there must be some feel to it that puts them off. Google litter box training and start from square one. He just might not do it. I suggest Feline Pine- clean smelling, lasts longer than clumping, very healthy, cheap.

Make it pleasant for him. On clean liter sprinkle some cat nip or put in his favorite toy. Offer him some privacy and locate Catbox in a pleasant spot.

Place the auto litter tray next to the cats old litter tray. Stop cleaning out the old tray and the cat will begin to start using the new auto tray.

I've never been successful getting my cat to change litterboxes. When I got him the self clenaing trays he ends up using my sofa instead.
