Simba is pretty much completely potty trained, he uses the pee pad occasionally but pretty much does all his "business" outside. We have hard wood floors throughout the house but have an alpeca fur rug (an no, no poor alpeca lamb had to die for this- they shave them, I checked

) in the living room. Strangely enough, he does have accidents on the rug, someone told me that he may confuse the rug with a large pee pad. Since the rug can't be washed, and I'd like for them to have the whole house to run through while we are gone, I was wondering if there was some kind of vibration device I could place on the rug that would keep Simba away or maybe anyone else has any suggestions....?

Thanks,
Anita
