Cats can be trained to use the toilet like humans, believes Australian designer Jo Lapidge who has developed the Litter-KwitterTM Cat Toilet-Training System which structures cat toilet-training into three stages.

The system uses red, amber and green toilet seat-shaped rings that can be filled with kitty litter and placed over the toilet bowl. Kitty graduates through the rings, which have holes of increasing size, until she is weaned off the litter and learns to balance on the toilet seat alone.

Her design has won her a place in the Fresh Innovators initiative, a campaign to highlight the work of emerging Australian inventors.
