Posted by: Steve Scudder at February 15, 2005 3:25 PMThere have long been books on teaching your cat to use the toilet instead of the litter box. The training involves saran wrap across the top at first, as I recall. Be sure to remove it before the wife gets home, is my advice.

Posted by: Ravenwood at February 16, 2005 11:24 AMthe Saran wrap goes across the toilet. Then you put litter on the Saran wrap. You then phase out the litter, and eventually phase out the saran wrap.
