Is there a chance the other cat(s) aren't letting her use the litter box? sm

That is a problem in my multicat household. Some of them will chase the cat who is eliminating in the wrong place so she can't use the box. They'll even hide in the area of the box and pounce on her when she tries to relieve herself. You can try putting boxes in different spots or different floors of the home. Good luck.

Well you gave her a fair chance, asked her to stop. It's a shame she didn't take the chance. n

Cute, but why do you have a litter box when the cat goes outside?
One way or the other. I wouldn't have cats if I had to deal with a stinking litter box. Yuck!
And no comments about how could I possibly like my cats if I let them outdoors, blah, blah, blah.
They've always been outdoor cats. We live in a remote rural area with no traffic. They are healthy, fixed, up-to-date on all shots, vet checked, well fed and well taken care of. We tried to keep them in after hearing all of the horror stories about letting your cats outdoors, but they weren't buying it and kept howling to go out. The eldest is 13 and the younger one is 9. They started out as outdoor cats and apparently are going to stay that way.
Okay: I have a problem with my cat and his litter box. Someone please help!
He's a good kitty. He's a big kitty. Actually, he's a 27-pound kitty and he's not but about 2 pounds overweight! BIGGGG KITTY!
He's always been great about his litter box. Lately, however, he seems to be missing it (it has a lid or housing on it). So, I've been watching. Doggone it! He is leaving his whole back 2 legs OUT!!! He crawls in head first, and then DOES HIS BUSINESS RIGHT THERE ON THE MAT!!!
He crawls out after scratching around a bit in the litter and then sniffs on his business on the matt and scratches the mat and the floor!!!
WHAT?!?! HOW do I get this cat to get his butt into the litter box? Same litter box - no problems before. Just suddenly seems to like leaving his behind out!!!
I'm exhausted!
big kitties and litter boxes
I have three cats and one of them is a very big (long) Himalayan who always manages somehow to go on the edge of his litter box or hit the floor, so I have put a scatter rug under his litter box and I purchased a longer litter box. I tried the ones with the tops and he could not fit in it, so I just make sure he hits the box and if not clean the rug of the litter or debris on it. I don't let any of my three cats out because our vet told me it is not a good idea here with coyotes and rabies, so they are all in the house. I also always make sure the litter box is clean for all of them to use. I found with multiple cats that Cat's Pride scoopable is the best. My vets recommends shreaded paper if you have one or two cats. I tried that with three but what a mess that was, and out of all the litter out there on the market, the Cat's Pride Scoopable is the best for my cats.
We adopted 3 feral cats and one of them won't use the litter box
all the time. She uses it sometimes, just not all the time. We have 2 litter boxes and she always goes in the room where the boxes are, sometimes actually touching the box and once she went on the actual box of litter. They have all been spayed, put on antibiotics in case of infection, we have tried 3 different litter boxes, various litters, keeping them cleaned,etc. and nothing seems to work. It seems to be only 1 of the 3 cats and she may go a few days and do okay but then we find or smell a surprise. Our vet has no clue and I've read and tried various things I've found on-line.

Thats a really good question. Maybe they arent all as hard as the folks below had it.
The person who said they worked all those hours (the 3 dollar person the OP referenced) posted they werent doing it anymore. That is what I read, but maybe I just assume that those were the same folks.
Yep, but MT week IS. and i bet people complain if they arent recognized. :(

stick to the topic -- we arent talking about home associations -DUH
The topic was that they should be allowed to paint their house whatever color they want if they paid for their house. They make the decision to be in an association and most that want the "weird colors" know not to buy one in an association.
The point is you can PAINT your house any color you want.
Thanks for letting us know he's OK.
That's good news. I will put his name on the prayer list at our church. I hope he is soon able to get back on his feet.
I'm just letting you know that they are
not as expensive as you were making them out to be. The big bags cost that much, not a regular purse, and I am not talking knock offs. I am not disagreeing with you though. Most all of these people have been poor their whole life. If you think that every one of them will take that $2000 and only spend in on things that they need, then you are disillusioned. To be honest with you, I am surprised more people have not wasted it on unnecessary items.
Thanks for letting us know about this.
These deals are great! I just requested a catalog. I will check this site before I buy software ever again.
OMG! Thanks so much for letting me know!

Thanks for letting me know!
That's pretty much what I have wound up doing, too bad they couldn't come up with a better way to do that to make it easier, but at least I know that it's not just me!! I'm definitely not use to the automatic numbering that Word does. Fortunately not many of my docs do this subset thing, but there are a couple, and one that even dictates i. ii. iii. under a.b.c., that almost had me pulling my hair out trying to get those lined up!
Thank you for letting us know.
I was one who posted trying to help. I'm glad to know that you were finally able to get it to work; you're information may also be helpful to someone else in the future with a similar problem.
Thank you, for letting me know I am not the only one...
doing this quickly so I do not get the 'boot' again!
I stopped letting them do that.
Too many times they had inexperienced techs who messed everything up. Once my computer crashed because of what they did. Another time, another company, they deleted a program and nothing would work right. Just because they say they are a computer tech does not mean they know anything. Many do not even have a certificate, just a litle on the job training.
Thanks for letting me know there are people out there
on both sides of the fence. Yeah, I know the consequences and the possiblities. I live with them every day. I guess I have not been as good a planner as many of you have been. It kind of snow-balled me before I could get a grip on it. I think not having a good tax guy for 10 years did not help. But any solutions to getting out of debt with the IRS would be greatly appreciated. Like they say Two things are for sure, death and taxes. No way around either. I have heard that some people cheat the goverment every year with not reporting income and stuff and never have to pay nothing because they make a living under the table. The penaty I get for reporting and filing and having a husband that works a good job is garnished wages and liens. No one wants to work out payment plans that you can live with.
I don't mind letting one use it but....nm
sounds like you are letting them run over you. sm
you are going to have to stand up and say look in order to keep those accts, keep work flowing to you, and money to all of us, we have to meet our requirements. the more you let them lax, the more they will do it. no one likes to be ridden either, but at some point you have to say something or it will only get worse. maybe start pulling some of their work from their assigned acct and giving it to those one or two who are productive on thurs/fri and the others will get the hint to get their work done or you will get someone else to do it.
You did take off from work, without letting anyone know
You flew out of town and now something does not work? If I were them, I would be upset without a notice. You do not sound responsible because if you were, you would have thought out about your work before leaving unless a dire emergency and then you probably would have notified your company.
Just letting you know what I found
This site is very reliable. Luckily I barely use my cell phone so hopefully if it true I won't be effected.
There is nothing lost by letting them know
We are all human.
If they take you back, then give it a while before looking for a new position, and then when you leave the next time, you'll know to have it all in place before giving your notice. Don't fall for these "must start right away" advertisements for jobs. They are a buncha you know what. All companies have at least one MT to cover until they find a new hire. Nothing happens overnight!
Your other option would be to start applying and testing with other companies. I remember Transcend being really quick to get me equipment when I worked for them. Another idea would be to post your resume here and you may get offers if you haven't already done so. Oh gosh, I feel so bad for you. Please let us know how you make out. What a pickle; but you can still transcribe, so you should be okay as long as you can pick up something really soon.
OMG. I'm never letting my legs out of my sight again. LOL.

Its the MQ way. I have my way of letting them know I know they are lying. I hate being BS around.

I'm gonna do all of them! Thanks for letting me vent!
:-)
Try covering with mayonaise and letting sit...
for a few hours/over night; then wipe off.
More surprising is what the parents are letting them do. sm
My daughter is in 6th grade. There is a girl in her class who is ELEVEN years old. Now keep the age in mind for a minute here.
This 11-year-old girl has piercings in one eyebrow, one side of her nose, her bottom lip, her tongue AND her belly button. Both ears are also pierced all the way around with about 12 studs in each ear. She wears full makeup and tight, low slung jeans. She told my daughter that she is getting a tattoo for her 13th birthday.
Sort of a "teenage right of passage" so to speak? After all her parents have pretty much run out of things to give her permission to do.
I've met the "parents" and it's obvious that the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree.
Shall I suggest a uvula piercing for her big 13th?
I am confused here, you are leary about letting - sm
young kids drive, but you allow your 14-1/2-year-old to drive? Not only is this illegal, it is nuts. I hope you just made a typo and are not actually allowing your underage child to drive. You will both get in a lot of trouble if you are ever caught, which I hope is the case if she is underage.
Letting Physician hear her own dictation
I had two bad dictating Rads, one who said "period paragraph" in the middle of a sentence throughout the entire report and another who threw up the films while dictating, as his handset was placed on the counter. There was no OM to talk to, it was me and after asking them repeatedly to fix the problem, they tried with no improvement. So I typed the report exactly as he dictated it and gave it to him for signature. He never said a word to me about it, just redictated clearly and never did it again. With the other, I walked into the reading room and played the tape for him and asked him if he wanted me to send the dictation to the referring physician so that he could figure out what he was saying. You would be surprised how quick these guys got their act together. But they really did not think there was a problem until it was presented to them. Maybe she needs to hear what it sounds like. She may not think its so bad. I say copy and send the bad dictations with the letter. Leaving out those things mentioned above.
You make 25-30 an hour by letting the editor do your job for you dumba$$!
You will get yours in the end sweetie. Having someone else do your job shows you are lazy!!
Oh my you would have Amherst in a scramble letting their reports get 2 hours old. Gee, they would
have no clue what to do. Probably sit up all night and watch the system or MAYBE do them themselves to keep the 1 hour TAT. Yep.
I agree with not letting our children watch crap; however,
I think some people are a little too sensitive when it comes to TV. Being someone who supports gay marriage, shows such as Will and Grace do not bother me. I don't really watch much TV though. The only show I love is CSI, but I rarely have time to sit down and watch it.
On the other hand, I have a huge problem with a network that allows many animals to be killed just for entertainment purposes and a problem with people who think that this is okay for some reason. It's pathetic. If that were dogs or cats floating around in that water instead of rats, people would be throwing a fit. What is the difference??
I don't understand why everyone keeps letting Rapid Transcript advertise...SM
They have been doing this for years. I had to nearly take them to court to be paid for two weeks worth of typing. I can't believe that they are still getting away with this. PLEASE, in the best interest of honest MTs looking for an honest day's wage, STOP ALLOWING THEM TO ADVERTISE ON THIS WEBSITE OR ANY OTHER MT JOB WEBSITE. TIA
lol... that's funny. that's what I'm talking about, letting your fingers loose and not wor
I've been letting them stay up pretty late, so they sleep until 10:00.
Still, they get bored in those two hours between getting up and my finishing work at noon. Goofy kids. I do have them in band, but it ends this week. Maybe a day camp for a week or two. I think I'll haul them off to the library for some books. The only Y or rec program in town is in the rougher neighborhood, and they only offer certain scheduled classes. Thanks for the tip!

Is your dad by any chance (sm)
a less than happy camper when he wakes up in the morning? Maybe moving a little too fast in the morning? Maybe Snoopy is avoiding dad when dad's adrenaline is pumping, but doesn't see a problem when dad is kicked back and relaxed.
Then there's the off chance that...
The person who posted wasn't "Joan Berre," but was trying to potentially cause trouble for her. I would hate to think that anyone would do that, but it's possible.
