I think you need to ask kitty! :) Just kidding ...

I scoop once a day and my cats are fine with it. (They each have a box.)
Others scoop every time the cat goes, but that requires a bit more
attention
to kitty's potty habits for me!

For sure, not keeping the box clean enough (in kitty's opinion) can make
for very bad habits. Our tuxedo with "cattitude" was fine until I rebelled
against having to do everything my husband does not want to do, and
insisted he clean her box. He let it get really dirty, she finally had 
enough,
and waited until he was IN bed, in  freshly laundered linens, and peed
ON him.

They know how to get our attention. Let us know how it goes.
