Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / October 2005I Don't Believe it!!!!!!!!
Something unusual was happening. Usually when Mico goes to pee in the litterbox, it makes a certain sound. But today I heard the tinkle of water, and went to see what was happening. I was hoping he wasn't peeing into the sink. Well lo and behold, he was perched on the toilet seat with his rear end over the toilet! I NEVER trained him to do anything like that, I always thought that kind of stuff was just not natural. Who woulda thunk??????

I've read about cats who've done this but haven't known any personally. Teach him how to flush :-) Bikkie uses the bathroom sink. I wouldn't ever train a cat to use the toilet or sink, but hey, once they decide that's where they are going, you can't do much about it. :-) Sherry > Something unusual was happening.

Unfortunately, he died of FeLV a few months later. But he was a smart cookie. > Something unusual was happening. Usually when Mico goes to pee in the > litterbox, it makes a certain sound.

His mom said she was combing her hair, etc. one day in the bathroom and he came in, got on the toilet, squatted, and went. I've lost touch with her so don't know if he continued to do it.

If Mico is lucky enough to live to be a senior cat, he may start having trouble hopping up there - he could slip and fall in, etc. Toilet-training cats sounds like a good idea, but it's potentially dangerous as the cat ages. =( BLink >> Something unusual was happening.

Patches used both. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- From: "Ruby Tuesday" <willow93@yahoo.com> >Well lo and behold, he was perched on the toilet seat with his rear >end over the toilet!

No, but I once suggested to my wife that we train TK to use the toilet. "Oh great!" she said. "The last thing I need around here is another guy with bad aim at 3 in the morning". That was good!
