Ata's Cats |
Because you haven't heard about them for soooooo long.
Ata and Mr Ata were toilet-training their cats. As in, training them to use the actual toilet. This would probably have been an easier process if there were less than two cats or more than one toilet in the house.
Anyway, we felt we were making good progress - Bosco would use the toilet seat, but Ros would not, so we were having to go back a couple of steps. Then we thought we were making good progress again, until we discovered Bosco peeing down the plughole in the bath.
Eventually, Mr Ata insisted that we give up. Instead, we bought a covered litter box. The cats go in and out through a swinging flap. They did not like the covered litter box, and refused for a couple of days before giving in.
We thought all was well.
Today we discovered that Bosco has figured out how to get IN to the bag of litter, which he apparently feels is easier and better than simply pushing through the swinging flap.
But Mr Ata is a good boy, so Ata only had to discover this by hearing about it from Mr Ata, while he cleaned up.
Dratted cat. |

You know, ata, i've decided that of the 2 cats, i would definitely prefer to have Roswell rather than Bosco.

Roswell takes a lot less energy.
Bosco is kind of like keeping a small, energetic breed of dog in a cat's body - meaning he can get into more places and cause more trouble.
Ata's BIL#2 used to like Bosco much more than Roswell, because Bosco was more fun.
After house-sitting for a fortnight, he was much more fond of Roswell, and felt that Bosco was a high maintenance attention seeker.
Ata loves them both, but, well, Bosco would test her limits if it was just Ata at home.
