We will all be dancing around on the lawn with our legs crossed because that same person put down water filled soft drink bottles.... apparently we humans won't do our business near 'em. Must be true I have never had to skirt a dump in the drinks aisle in the supermarket have you? ]

i think the worst revenge would be making us crap in litterboxes.. THEN have to clean them out! i dont have cats, but my dogs are a handful... they dont do their business in the tub, but they play tug of war with my brand new comforters... ooh... my fish.... so glad i have nice calm fish that stay in the tank...............

If dude is right and the cats ever do take over the world they are going to make us crap in a litter box as revenge.

Found the answer, I went to a crummy gift shop and found a motion detecting room buddy toad. It croaks really loudly and its eyes light up. The cat saw it and freaked so i put it in the bathroom.


Now he craps in his dry biscuits.

Yes i know. My cats a retard.


Laughing out loud so hard. git you are sooooo funny. Improvement though. You need to get some tips from Tek who seems to be having more success.

Well, the training is finally over. She is now using the commode at will with no potty chair.

Updated as we are moving toward STEP 4. We started a different way of conditioning her, and it is explained.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I will try and put 3-4 inches of water in the bathtub and leave it there.... she'll be in for a surprise when she flies to the bathroom and soars into the tub.... hehe.

Is there something your cat is nervous of? Like paper that crackles that you could put in the bath. Each time he jumps in he will get a fright. Eventually he/she won't jump in.

Or how about citronella or citrus peels or whatever it is that cats avoid/don't like when doing their business?

Maybe you should stop using the catnip soap... it seems to be attracting your cat to the bathroom.

I have two litter trays, a catflap, and I often leave an inch of water in the bath to put him off - and he STILL craps in it.

Anyone want a hand made pair of black furry mittens?

We had a cat do that without training. At the old house they had a cat door and no cat box so they had to go outside. When it got cold, Iowa winters can get into the negatives, one of the cats decided he didn't want to go outside but didn't want to make a mess on the floor either. He just copied people instead.
