Cat Forum / General Topics / January 2004cat proof toilet paper holder?
Someone told me they saw a toilet paper holder with a cover in a catalog 'somewhere'. Anyone seen this. I have a couple that won't leave it alone and another is trying to get it off the shelf I'm currently storing it on. I tried turning so it won't roll out and then she gets so frustrated she shreds it.

Pull the rubber band into the roll until it become difficult to spin. This will allow you to unroll the paper when needed but take all the fun of a spinning roller for the cats.

Balance a light weight plastic bowl about half full of water on top of the roll so that when it's disturbed, the water spills out. Yeah, it makes a mess, but I had to do it only twice to break the stubborn toilet paper dragging yearling I once had - she never touuched it again for the rest of her 17 years. T.E.D.

That might work, but I do rescue work and let the kittens and teenagers run the house with my own(after 10 days of quarentine). It would be a constant training exercise.

Weel, I've had a lot of cats in the last 35 years or so that I have been keeping cats - as many as fourteen at a time - and only a very few have defeated the trick of rolling the paper off the back, so I have had to use the water trick for only a couple of cats in all. I haven't needed to use it in almost eighteen years. Of course, teenagers complicate the situation: it's much harder to teach them not to play with toilet paper than it is to teach cats. T.E.D.

This page shows a couple of hoodes toilet paper holders (both recessed and surface mounted -- scroll a short way down the page). Would that type help? http://www.rbagroup.com.au/toiletpaper_holders.html MaryL The hooded recessed one looks like a winner. Thanks.
