I have a friend who had one cat out of 9 that used the toilet.
Make sure you will have the patience before you begin…It can take weeks and even months for some cats.
A helpful point in cat potty training is if you have two bathrooms. Reserve one just for the cat during the training period and don’t forget to leave the toilet lid up and the seat down.
A cat instinctively has to bury its business in the sand, mud, litter or wherever so you are going to have to try and slowly change its behavioral habits over the course of a few weeks.
Initially, a few logical steps are needed to get the cat used to the idea of using a toilet. Start moving the litter tray, over the course of a few days, nearer and nearer to the bathroom. Cats are by nature, creatures of habit so anything out of the ordinary is likely to upset them or even stress them out to a certain degree.
When moving the litter tray, make sure it is in view of where it was initially placed so the cat doesn’t have to actively seek it out. If the cat doesn’t find the litter tray in its normal place and it cannot see it, it will probably do its toilet wherever it thinks the tray was or should have been! Once you arrive at the bathroom, place the litter tray next to the toilet bowl and leave it there so the cat can get used to the toilet area. This way the cat will eventually get to associate the toilet bowl with the need to go to toilet.
The next course of action will be to gradually start raising the litter tray a little higher off the ground each day so that the cat can get used to the idea of jumping up into the tray to do a toilet and hence, eventually, up onto the toilet itself. You can raise the litter tray by placing thick books or telephone directories underneath it but make sure the litter tray itself is stable because if it’s not and the cat jumps into it and it tips up, it will not want to jump up to it again because of the previous bad experience, making your task all the more difficult! Once you have done this for a few days and the litter tray reaches the level of the toilet, you can place the tray on top of the bowl itself.
Leave it here for a couple of days so the cat can get used to jumping up to the full height of the toilet. You will then need to find in insert of some description that will fit snugly into the top of the toilet bowl- a shallow pan or mixing bowl are ideal or even one of those disposable foil baking trays. Add some litter into this insert so the cat can have a familiar sensation under its paws but if you can, try and use flushable litter as some will inevitably end up in the toilet itself.
After a couple of days, start to gradually reduce the amount of litter that is in the bowl or foil and make a small hole at the bottom of whatever is inserted in the toilet bowl. Over the next few days, decrease the amount of litter in the insert while at the same time increasing the size of the hole at the bottom. Eventually you should end up with just a large hole and no litter. After a couple of days of this, you should be able to remove the insert totally and your cat should now be toilet trained!

Cats use litter boxes! Humans use the toilet! If the litter box stinks, then I suggest baking soda or a special litter that locks out odor. Also, keep the box scooped so that the smell doesn\\\’t travel.

you can also train him to cover his poop and pee in the litter box so it won\\\’t smell as bad!!

If the litter smells that bad you should use baking soda. It worked for my cat.
