Will someone please PLEASE come clean my litter box???
Well, it's not MY litter box, but it's my cat's litter box.

Mr. Bouncy and I seem to be in a stand off to see who will break down and clean it first. I say I cleaned it last (AND I KNOW I DID!!!!) and he says HE did. Liar. I know I did. I REMEMBER doing it.

He thinks I'm gonna break down first. NOTHING DOIN'. He needs to get to scoopin'.

It smells funny in here. The cat is saying "Listen you fucking bastards. Clean my fucking toilet before I shit in your SHOE."

2. Solution - until it's cleaned

Let the cat use the toilet and you two use the litter box.

You'll race to see who can clean it first.

4. you might want to check out one of those covered automated
cleaning boxes. they are wonderful. Combs it into a bay and you take out the full bag and put in a new one. Covered prevents smells and gives the kitty privacy. :-D what the well-appointed puddy tat needs.

13. I'm seriously considering those (the "Littermaid")
I'm afraid to because Simba is so jumpy, but it might be worthwhile.

BB - my husband will NOT scoop poop at ALL. He won't get a cat while we're living apart because he'd have to scoop. We don't have kids, but if we did, he says he couldn't change diapers too. Little nose is just too delicate and sensitive, I guess!

17. Oh he'd change diapers alright.
Our rule was whoever touched her last OR whoever noticed the smell first had to change her.

I'm not kidding either. We'd stand there saying "No YOU touched her last!!!!"

Poor kid. We do love her, though!

44. A Funny Dog Fart Story
One Sunday a few years ago, I was talking on the phone with my mother back in NJ. The Princess was sitting on the couch - Peanut, our older dog, was sitting in front of The Princess, cleaning herself. Suddenly, Peanut farted - and then froze, as if to savor the aroma.

The Princess started laughing, and I tried not to laugh, because I didn't want to explain to my mother WHY I was laughing.....

Time to earn that allowance, kiddo! Why else would you have kids, if they can't take care of those little, dirty jobs?

and a backhoe. And make me utterly not liable for any damage, because there's gonna be a lot, because that's the whole point of having dynamite and a backhoe.

34. We're both so weird.
You love someone quoting speed metal death lyrics to you about goat blood and shit, and if a guy starts talking backhoes and dynamite, well, I just get tingly, there's no two ways about it.

My husband always cleaned the litter box so I wouldn't risk toxoplasmosis. Can you tell him you're with child???;-)

23. Well, seeing as he got snipped five years ago
I think he'd have some PRETTY serious questions if I tried to pull that. As in "how???"

33. It is kind of expensive
I think mine cost around $90. But it was worth every penny.

Sitting here, I just heard it whirring. Knowing I don't have to get up, find the scooper and get rid of a gross mess is an unbelievably wonderful feeling.

24. solution:
tell him yer preggers. pregnant women can't change litterboxes - it's not safe. then tomorrow you can tell him that "oops" you were wrong.


ok...maybe that won't work so well in the long term...

29. See my response above.
He got "snipped" five years ago. He'd ask how I was pregnant.

28. As a cat person, I would normally not hesitate to help out here. But-
I have a dog now, and I have to trail around behind her and pickup-well, you know-I'm kinda all crapped out.

31. Crapped out.
Yeah. I can tell I'm going to give up first because I spend more time in the room that has the closet the litter box is kept in. He's just avoiding that room.

43. HA, now I am haveing a guilt trip because the litter boxes in MY
garage need depooping. Of course my guys all go through the cat door and go out by preference to do their little business and I am cold and do not want to go in the chilly garage to de poop the boxes.

tomorrow it will be warmer, yeah, that's the ticket

45. Sorry, not me!
I'm constantly scooping, yet one of my kitties still prefers to do his business in the bathtub.

Plus I have to keep my son's closet door closed because a few weeks ago I discovered that someone had been using it as a toilet-- right on top of my silk dress that had fallen to the floor along with numerous other items.

I would murder the little f&*ker except for one thing-- He is ILLEGALLY cute!!
