Normally I would accept that solution, however I'm on the 21st floor of a high rise, and the elevators are rediculously slow... thus we'd poo in the elevator before we'd make it.

we're moving in a month and will be on the second floor of a small condo with a nice semi private back yard, then we will be able to do any time of day, poop runs, until then, I'm stuck trying to find another way...

Another problem is that my boyfriend and I are on work terms... so I work 8-4... and two of his poops are in the 7:30-8:00 range, so me having the time isn't there either (I know crappy excuse, but I go back to school when we move in September, so I'll be able to do the morning poo runs then).

I look forward to having a back yard, and no bugs in my freakin apartment... that's why I'm not crating him at night (mind you he doesn't poop at night anyway, unless I feed him after 8... for which I deserve a late poop for messing up his schedule... ok I'm rambling now...

Thanks!
