My 2 boyz are driving me nuts!

[my2boyz]

With their little quirks, bad manners and new behaviors! I won't go into all the little sorted details but the one thing I would love to know is...why does Riley think he can only poop in his litter box when I'm about halfway through my meal? It never fails..it's like he knows it totally grosses me out and he does it on purpose! Jo is now 26 months old and has suddenly decided he doesn't want to be independant anymore...he wants to be a mama's boy which means he has to be with me every minute. I tell ya...somedays I wish I was fidless...they're killin' me here!

OMG me too! I'm sorry your'e being driven crazy by your little guys. I kinda lost it on Thor today cause he's being such a leech and whining! Don't you wish you couls just run away from them sometimes? But then you look at their sweet faces and melt. Darn things!! I hope this annoying phase passes for you!

Is there anyplace else you could put the litter box? Sorry your having a small problem. Just sounds like nerves and nothing a nice long walk or playing in the park can't fix right up. Could be they are bored and need some other stimulation.

Well, when I do run away Riley is a total nutcase when I come back in the door! He gets ahold of his favorite glow worm toy and barks with it in his mouth, then he whines and wiggles around with his ears laid down, wagging his little stubby tail and just about turning himself inside out with happiness to see me. Of course, all this time he's right under your feet so you can hardly get in the door...all the while Jo is quietly jumping up around your knees (which he can't even reach!) so it's like a little Yorkie circus! I don't know if I should keep trying to escape the madness to retain what little sanity I do have left or if it's worth the fleeting moments of peace I get when I leave...only to be instantly assaulted when I return!

No, they get plenty of stimulation and outside time...they have a huge deck and fenced area where they go out several times a day and I only bring them in when they're ready...not when I'm ready. Riley was trained to potty pads when we got him so I continued using them while training him to go outside too but he won't totally let go of the litter box and pads. I keep them down so when we're gone he can use them but I may have to change my stradegy with him. Jo won't go inside or use the box but Riley will sometimes go outside but prefers to use the box. It's not really a problem...it just seems weird that he does it everytime I sit down to eat!
