Just a box in the basement doesn't work because the furnace in the winter freaks the one cat out. The only way I can keep the cats waste matter contained is to have multiple box.
Also my grandfather will not put the baby gates back which is how the dog gets to the box. I have tried my gates and he has flat out said he will not deal with the point end of subject.
Cozy (yorkie) does not eat the litter. She plays with the poop. Vet said the cat poop has a high protein count so it must sell good to Cozy.
Cozy really only gets into the one box on the main level of the house because that is where she is most of the day.
I just wish I could find a self clean box that would definately work. Also the cats will not use litter boxes that are covered. Both of my cats are pretty big in the 12-14 pound range so they don't seem to like to be cramped inside a litterbox.
My easiest solution would be to get rid of grandpa but I know that is never going to happen. |
LOL i don't think your parents will let you get rid of grandpa but that would solve the problem.
The litter robot is out because its smallish and covered. If you can find an old version of the littermaid i'd recommend that. sometimes you can find them on amazon.
my pup used to go into the litter box at my BF's house. i would stand by with a squirt bottle for when she did and she's get it right in the butt. problem solved
lol
