That might work, but I do rescue work and let the kittens and teenagers run
the house with my own(after 10 days of quarentine). It would be a constant training exercise. -- Joe http://www.jwpitt.com/cats.htm Cat Rescue http://www.animalrescuefoundation.com God created the cat so man could have the pleasure of petting the tiger "Ted Davis" wrote in message ...

I tried turning so it won't roll out and then she gets so frustrated she shreds it. Balance a light weight plastic bowl about half full of water on top of the roll so that when it's disturbed, the water spills out. Yeah, it makes a mess, but I had to do it only twice to break the stubborn toilet paper dragging yearling I once had - she never touuched it again for the rest of her 17 years.

The hooded recessed one looks like a winner. Thanks.

Weel, I've had a lot of cats in the last 35 years or so that I have been keeping cats - as many as fourteen at a time - and only a very few have defeated the trick of rolling the paper off the back, so I have had to use the water trick for only a couple of cats in all. I haven't needed to use it in almost eighteen years. Of course, teenagers complicate the situation: it's much harder to teach them not to play with toilet paper than it is to teach cats.

Personally, I prefer moist wipes to toilet paper, so I don't have problems with the cat shredding rolls of paper. :c) http://www.cottonelle.com/moist/folded.asp Apart from this, you could always hang the roll from the ceiling - out of reach. I bet your cats would find this really frustrating. he he he |
