Sorry about the littermaid mess! As kitkat mentions, a covered litterbox might be the way to go for you. For a while I tried a litterbox set inside a larger, cut down cardboard box to help contain the litter being tracked every where. Leave at least 4-5 inches all the way around the litterbox. It was an okay solution that trapped the worst of the mess.



I have 3 cats, two of whom I bathe. They don't like it, but they don't kick up much of a fuss. The 3rd will commit murder before she'll allow me to suds her up. If leaving kitty to clean herself is not an option (one of my cats is too fat to reach everywhere) try calling an animal groomer in your area, or see if it can be done at your vet's. It maybe that with time, kitty will decide trying to get out of a bath is useless and you'll be able to resume bathing kitty yourself.



Congrats on your new fur baby! like any new family member a little adjustment period is to be expected - you'll be fine.



Purrs,

Elizabeth
