I added some wood chips and a rock that he peed on so he would know what I wanted him to do. He is pretty stubborn, but I had a chair and a magazine, and I just waited him out. He finally peed. Now getting him to poop is a little harder...but he has pooped in it a couple of times. I just have to be patient and wait. I also put a little heater in the garage so neither one of us gets too cold. Right now Winston is in the hospital after surgery for chiari malformation. He is doing well and hope to get him home in a couple of days. Hope this helps.
wow you win dedicated mom of the year!
I hope your little one comes home soon and is feeling better!
