I tried the bell training... I think it was starting to work, but then Sapphire became totally freaked out about it and would run the other way, so I stopped using it. I may bring it out again and she if she can at least tolerate it. Plus she mostly uses the peepad so if the other 3 catch on, that would still be a good thing!

I do wait for one to tell me they want out, but alot of times I'll just go ahead and let them out and tell them to go potty, usually I make sure they go out about every 3-4 hours. Especially after nap time, playtime, and grooming too.
