My aim as far as Lucy and Gizmo, I'm just going to work on training Gizmo to ignore her teasing , and with Lucy and the potty pads, well that might take more work, as Lucy is older and set in her ways. I think I figured out that, she started removing the potty pads once Gizmo was allowed to go out for walks, I think she's jealous. And yes she's pulling them out of the whole pad holders. I even bought this thick foam tape to put around the edges of the frame to hold them down tighter, but she still gets them out :-( the pad issue is going to be the harder issue to resolve. The teasing I think, I can train Gizmo to ignore. I just need to figure out the potty pad situation mostly. Wish me luck :-) |
Squirt bottles did not work for me. The cats learned to 'fear' the bottle, and were 'traumatized' by the sight of the bottle. Plus, the water got stuff wet, and when they were wet, they'd run through the house shaking the water off them.
