That Boyfriend has peed in my bath, so I am taking the litter box

He will not use it, no way, if it's in the kitchen, apparently and he has
pooed three times over the years in the bath.
I don't mind too much as it is easily cleaned up but I wish he would just
use his lb.


Biskit used to use the bath too. I bought her a new covered litterbox
and she
has used it consistently since then, for at least two years! If I had
known the
problem could be solved so easily, I'd have done it a long time ago.

OTOH, I've heard that can be a sign of urinary distress. You might try
to catch
him at it and see if he seems to be straining. Hopefully, he just
prefers the location
of the bathroom. Maybe he perceives it as more private and the high
sides of the
bath make him feel secure or something. Good luck!

I don't think there's anything wrong with him, it only happens if I go to
bed early and get up late and he's shut in overnight - and then only 3
poos & 1 wee in all the time I've had him. I can't really grumble, it's
easily cleaned.

Yes, there are certainly worse places he could go.
