Charlotte, I would stick with one cat. My kitty was perrrrfect the last 18 and 1/2 years then he started missing the box just on the end. So was always have to be watchful of him. Then he started waking me up in the middle of the night when he mad a poop. I would have to get up and remove it. Could not figure why. The I realized I made him aware that I cleaned up after him during the day so why not at night lol
I changed his litter to the Tidy Cat Breeze system. I love it but not the price of refills . So I did a little DIY to save some money. The pellets do not brake down fast in water so I wash them iput them in a big old little box (plastic) and put in bleach hot water and vinegar. Rinse well let dry out side and reuse. As for the pads in side I buy the bed pads for people cut them to size. Easier on my pocket book and my back,

Both the original and DIY look very uncomfortable. Looks hard to get out of and after awhile the seat would be sagging to the floor. I think my cat would like it

Ok call me old fashion but what were their Mom's doing when these slobs were growing up? Picking up after them? Doing their laundry ? NO way, my son's learned the right way to clean every room. and did their own clothes after age 10 .
To this day I have to say they are better than me! My daughter-in-law thanked me for raising my son to clean.
They make better partners and have a happier marriage. No woman worth her salt is going to go in and "start training an adult" to be and adult ,what you will have is fights lots of them.Take pride in your personal space.

Joesan, Almost everything we buy is a copy , womens clothes when they have the big showings the audience is full of other design houses people to copy so they can make one for there mass stores. Besides copying someone else design is the best way to let them know they have a hit.

I had used Melaleuca in the early 90's as a hairdresser I also did nails and feet. I would put a few drops of the Tree Tea Oil in the foot bath. It cleans and stops any infection there may be. The smell was a little strong but I liked what it did.
For those of you that do not know Tea Tree Oil is from the Tea Tree plant in Australia it was used to fight infection before penicillin.
I recently saw a box being delivered to a neighbor and was surprised i was still in business. Then I answered an ad to work at home Mom's.
Then I get told they test on animals. etc. So I have been searching the net for more information. The question I ask my self "How do I feel about testing on animals"?
I know that I would not be here today if it were not for the testing. I know now that there is less animal testing because the use of computers has made it easier to know if something is ok.
I am not going to sign up ( calm down) I will buy as I need to.
And for those of you all up in arms over testing . If you had severe health problems or your child I know you would not hesitate to use these products. Until you walk in a patients shoes keep your lips together .

I just read (online) about a man in Japan that came up with plants keeping the air clean and cooler. I found it on an eco site . He place LOTS of plants inside a new office building .
There is a list of what plants work the best . But this office building is not using any A/c other than plants.So I have been buying them as I can afford them..I am Texas. it is never cool here . ever- never ever - did I mention never ever cool.

I can see that working for a very small cat. Mine is a long cat only part of him wouldget in. I use the Tidy cat Brezze system I love it. No hauling in buckets of dry litter and lugging out buckets of wet litter. I flush the poop and the wet pad under it goes in a bag to trash....Maj
