I'm getting sick of the somewhat messy litterbox in the house and wanted to see if it was possible to get our cats Millan and Tussen to use the toilet instead. My brother let me borrow his Litter Kwitter kit and I set it up on Sunday.
Both cats were a bit hesitant to use it at first, but eventually came around. We're still in "phase one" with the red disk, but I've moved the base up on the toilet. Will probably let them get used to jumping up for a week or so before swapping the disks. So far so good. :-]
Edit: Not so good after all. They've been reluctant to go number two on the base when it's up is on the toilet, making this "quest for a litter-free house" harder than I initially thought and hoped for. :-/
Edit2: It's suggested to put something next to the toilet that the cats can jump on for easier access. I set a box on the side and wrote some instructions for the cats to read when on their way to do their business. Hopefully it'll be clear enough. :-]
Edit3 -- 22/7: Ya things didn't turn out all that great and I think it has to do with there being more than one cat; they make a mess faster than we can clean up. Which sucks, because a) it would have been way more hygienic than using a litterbox, b) it would have made our lives so much easier (not by that much I suppose, but still, cleaning a litterbox isn't awesome!) and c) because pottytrained cats would have totally ruled.
It's a shame, but for now, they'll get their box back... *waves fist*
