Q: Most cats will prefer the litter box to other parts of the house because of the texture of the litter. But, there are still steps you need to take to make sure you're offering the litter box as the best place to use the bathroom. Place the box in a quiet spot where the cat won't be bothered by people, dogs, or loud noises. To keep the litter box clean, make sure you scoop the litter daily, and clean the box weekly. You should also replace or refresh the litter at least once a week. Provide enough litter boxes for more than one cat. If you have 2 cats, you need 3 litter boxes in different areas of the home. One cat might try to intimidate a less dominate cat away from using a single box. Don't frighten or startle your cat when it's using the box, or it may form a bad association with the box and start avoiding it. Buy a large box, even if you have to spend a little money on it. Cats are more comfortable in a larger (in area, not height) box. Don't switch brands of litter on your cat, because cats don't like sudden change. Switching from a clay litter to a scoopable clumping type of litter or vice versa might upset the cat so much it stops using the box. Don't use heavily scented litters that might deter a cat from litter box use. Keep in mind that kittens and older cats with arthritis or other health problems may have problems getting in and out of a box that's too tall. Use low-height boxes in an easily accessible area for kittens and cats with special needs, or buy an adjustable litter box. Scratching is a normal part of cat behavior, and there's no way you can train it out of them. If your cat still has its claws, he'll need one or two scratching posts to keep him from scratching up furniture, woodwork, and so on. By providing a post, you allow the cat to indulge in normal, healthy behavior. Cats are curious, and will jump on counters or other places you'd like them to steer clear of. Scat mats, a perfectly timed mist of water from a spray bottle, or even a stern "no" can correct this behavior. With time and patience, you can teach your cat to stay away from your protected areas. You can also use a rattle can (an empty soda can filled with a few pebbles and the opening taped over). Toss it gently on the ground to scare a cat away from forbidden surfaces. DO NOT throw the can at the cat, for that may harm your cat. These products, which fill the air with calming synthetic pheromones, come as sprays or diffusers that plug into electrical outlets. They can help resolve litter box or scratching issues, and have also been proven to calm stressed or anxious cats.
A: Encourage the cat to use a litter box. Make the litter box a comfortable place. Take young or old cats needs into consideration. Provide the cat with a scratching post. Discourage the cat from exploring forbidden surfaces. Consider using feline pheromone products.

Q: Decide what you want to do, then go for it. Your goals can be noble or mundane. Do you want to help homeless children have a better life? Do you want to provide people with more food or fashion options? Whatever your goal is, identify it. Short-term goals might include "Improve on last week's sales" or "Get one new investor this quarter." Try to set and meet at least three short-term goals each week and month. Short term goals are better expressed as sub-goals, as their achievement should lead to attaining a longer term goal. Long-term success is composed of consistently meeting short- and medium-term goals. Long-term goals might take the form of a mission or vision statement for your company or organization. For instance, a long-term goal might be "Ensure everyone who lives in Detroit who needs glasses can get them." Ensure your goals are realistic, clear, and actionable. After a concept is proven, it is time to gear up. Begin with a simple business model before scaling up. For instance, if you have a beverage business where you create your own fruit juices or sodas, begin by making them at home and selling them at the beach or at school functions. If you have a pet snack that you think is really great, start by giving them as gifts to your friends and family. Use this early stage to get feedback about your product or service, and incorporate this feedback into your design and planning process to perfect your enterprise. . Your business plan should be a strategic document outlining where you are and where you want to be. It should describe the history, organizational framework, and goals of your business. Use your mission and vision statements as a starting point when developing a business plan. The finished plan should be used as a guide to decide how to run the business, and delivered to potential investors when seeking funding. Your mission statement describes what your business or organization does on a daily basis. For instance, a lemonade business might have a mission statement that reads, "We make great lemonade." A vision statement describes what you want to do in the big picture, both now and in the future. For instance, a nonprofit vision statement might read, "We want increase literacy in Detroit to 100%." Develop a plan for fulfilling your vision. Identify the audience for your product or service. Who will buy them? Who do you want to buy them? How can you expand your business to make your goods attractive for new markets? Analyze these problems and work your conclusions into your business plan. Think about your competition. Is your share of the market going to increase or decrease? How can you make it increase more? Use past data on similar businesses to determine how the market is changing. Your business plan should include a section on marketing. How will you advertise your goods or services? Who are your ads aimed at? As an entrepreneur, you could be the head of a corporation, a nonprofit, a sole proprietorship, or a limited-liability company. This formal structure will determine your legal and tax obligations, and must be registered with your state government. A corporation is a public company with stock owned by shareholders. The corporation is guided by a board of directors. Usually only very large businesses go public as corporations because they have a complex business structure. A sole proprietorship is probably the type of business you'll start out with as an entrepreneur. This type of business is run and operated by just one person. While it offers flexibility in decision-making, it can be difficult because you will personally be responsible for the enterprise's liabilities and losses. A partnership is a business arrangement in which two or more parties join forces and have equal stakes in the business profits, decisions, and strategies. Be sure to partner only with people you trust. An LLC combines elements of corporations and partnerships. It is run by members, and profits are distributed directly to each member. A nonprofit is like a corporation in that they have goals and a business-style organization, but they fulfill a public service mission in exchange for tax-free status.

Talk to a business lawyer in your area before deciding the best legal framework for your business. If you are a teen, this is especially important since you probably cannot set up most business types legally. However, the law varies from state to state, so check with an expert (preferably one with experience in your specific line of business) before making a decision.
