In is my opinion that cats can be the biggest jerks. My cat torments Brandi just because she knows she can. She will sit at the top of the stairs when she know Brandi just wants to go upstairs to go to bed. If Brandi tries to get past the mean kitty, the kitty will give Brandi little love taps and then Brandi runs back downstairs to tell me that the cat won't let her upstairs.   
As for the potty pads, I had that problem too. I no longer use the holder and I've switched to washable pads. My cat uses the potty pads to urinate as well and this probably won't change.  The cat now at least can't shred the disposable ones and all I have to do is just straighten it out now.     |
