Will the stray cat I've taken in instinctively know how to use a litter box, or do I have to train her?

She's only about 8 months old and actually a little "wild" too. She's used to eating insects, mice and anything else she can catch. I've allready started her on kitten food and she loves it. My old cat passed away a couple of months ago so I've decided to take this one in. Never had a "wild" cat before. I can use all the advise I can get.

Believe me she will know. It was a sad day for my then two when the tray went, I remember their faces looking at where it once lived. Don't think they ever hated me so much. Now I have just one, getting on in age, she makes us open the front door for her, so she can go in the front garden and heaven help us if we forget to let her back in. She cusses us out for awhile and throws dirty looks.

We had a boy cat years ago and he was as mean as hell haha. Yes just got a dirty look this morning, woke her up !! She is quite old, so it's allowed.

Yes, really jealous, who can resist a kitten. Enjoy. I had mine from a mitten, before the children she was my baby. She was not too fond of them when they were small, jealous I guess. But now they are older, she loves them. More hands to tend to her needs haha.
