How To Piss Off A Cat

This is Ginger. Ginger is a boy, but that's another story. Ginger likes to attack his litter box. As soon as we put fresh litter in there, he gets in and flings it out. Do you know how a cat acts with catnip? Rolling in it, and swatting it around? That's what Ginger does with litter. Drives me nuts! Well, this morning, Junior wanted to go into Petco to get a pair of clippers for his nails. (his the cat, not his Juniors) Anyway, while we were walking around, I saw a litter box on clearance. It was one of those ones that has a cover, and the cat has to go through a hole to get in. I thought this would be the perfect thing for Ginger. It would prevent him from throwing his litter all over my kitchen.

Well, talk about a pissed off cat! He went CRAZY!!! He spent a good half hour trying to get the top off, then got inside and started flinging litter. I was sitting here listening to it hit the sides, and probably the top, but none of it came out. He finally gave up, and now just glares at it as he walks by.

I will be sleeping with one eye open tonight...he has that look of revenge in his eyes....

That is funny, my cats really like the covered box! It's their first choice and usually only use the others it that one is kind of full.

Lol, that´s fun! You got him good :)
I´m very lucky with Atos. I have one uncovered box and he´s a good boy. Sometimes he spends more time than he should in the box, he´s just playing with the litter and I know it. If I go there and ask him what he´s doing, he runs away :) He knows exactly what he´s doing...
Good Tuesday!

Good luck and be careful. If we don't see a new post from you in a few days, maybe we'll need to send the police to check on you... and Ginger. :)

lol - that reminds me so much of my cat, Pepper!! She's all black, too. She used to fling litter all around, too, and I tried EVERYTHING! I finally found a litterbox at PetSmart that had a lid with a whole in the top - she has to jump on top and jump in and out of it - and no matter what, no litter gets anywhere. It's awesome. :)
