We’re crazy..
By nutcase101. Filed in Lola, Love, Random Thoughts, Sassy, family |Actually, B is the crazy one. But I love him and support his decision.
He wants to toilet train the cats.
If you knew how much litter we go through a year, you’d be helping the cats understand that the toilet is their friends. Sassy, with her ‘issue’, pees like a sprinkler. It’s fucking NUTS the amount of urine that comes out of her 13lb body. Anyway, with my back, it’s hard for me to clean out the litter boxes (yes, we have to have TWO) and the number of times we have to clean out said boxes, it’s exhausting.
During a trip to Petco, Brian found the Litter Kwitter. (Warming: video of cats shitting on a toilet)
It’s a potty training system with felines that gets them use to doing onesies and twosies over different trays that start out fully enclosed to a tray that is mostly a giant hole with a moat of litter around it. If this works, our life will be easy. Just go in and flush the toilet. And I’m sure B will devise a way to get the cats to enjoy the magical sounds of whirling water, so that they’ll flush after themselves. One can dream that our crazy antics will work!

I’ve been considering this for awhile – it seems like one of the best designed systems. Have you started the training?

No, it was a failure. Only one cat was even willing to look at the modified toilet/seat litterbox and the other cat would have nothing to do with it after five weeks. So, we’re back to two litter boxes.
Oh well, we gave it a good college try.
