I pooped in the litterbox! I haven't done that in a long time. I had just peed on my pad, then I had to poop. There were no other cats in the room, so I felt safe enough. Mommy was so thrilled she took my picture and then gave me treats! She's hoping I will do it again, and maybe pee in there too. We'll see.

When Mommy and Katie went to visit Grandma in AZ in March of 2012, Daddy worked double shifts and nobody was here to protect me. Cuddles beat me up over and over every time I wanted to use the box until I got too scared to go near it. I have not really used it since, except when Mommy sees that I need to go and puts me in the bathroom alone with a box. The rest of the time I use chux pads on the kitchen floor.

Thanks, Sparkle. He's not as bad now with Mommy, Daddy and Katie playing with him to use up his energy and stop him if he comes after me. It's mostly when I try to use a litterbox that he get mean because he has decided that they are all his except for the big one in the bathroom for Calley. That bathroom is her safe space, and Cuddles and I usually don't go in there. I do sometimes if I know Mommy is in there, but not usually. Since I have not be using the boxes, he has not been attacking me as much. When everyone has to go somewhere, Cuddles gets sent to Katie's room to make sure he doesn't hurt us while they are gone.

BamBam
who still doesn't know if she will use the box again or not and prefers to pee on the pads
