Challenges of Being Single Mom Raising Two Cats - Part 1

  With any pet there is

always challenges.

With my felines there has

been a couple of issues,

mostly over litter.

My biggest issue now

is Misty raising up 

when she pees. 

So when I went to Calif, I sat

up five boxes. Two like the

one below (which is what I normally

have sat up). Then I sat up 

two without the lids and to 

be sure they had enough

bathroom boxes I put the 

tall sided bin in there. 

I did not want T to have

to clean out boxes. 

My problem with Misty and

the ones with the lids is,

she goes in but don't turn around

so she raises up and shoots out

the door opening. There are flaps

that go there but my cats would not 

go in with them. 

However, that is not the only

issue with the lidded ones is, 

if Misty turns any little bit she

is not shooting out the door but

the pee runs between the top

and bottom, going outside

the unit.

That is the reason that there

is plastic down. 

Since I was putting ones in 

with no lids, to protect the walls

and keep everything on the plastic

I lined the wall with lids from 

bins.  Sort of like in the pic

above. 

Since I have been back from 

Calif. I have left all five

units up and I watched. 

Watched for what?

To see which ones the cats

used the most. 

I did not think they would like

the bin since they have 

to jump in...

and I was wrong.

That is the one they use the

most. Second choice is the 

boxes without lids.

Last of course are the ones

with lids. 

When I cleaned up the area

Thursday I sat the bin back up

and until I venture downstairs to 

see what else I have to use,

I sat the lidded one up. 

The cat room is in the smallest

guest room with the daybed, so 

having litter bins in there don't

bother me. 

How you like the title
