    I need to see Baby Borders too. Lol. She is being rather over dramatic & on Hunger Strike.

    I try to take her out & walk her & the neighbours large dogs charge at her. Hard to keep patience when you are sleep deprived!

    Sorry to hear things didn't go to plan Knine but glad to hear all three are ok at the mo. Another long night for you. I'll be hoping things continue to go well for Mama and pups.

    First they were pups, then puddings and now Christmas crackers..
    Is this evolution at its best or do you just not know what you have?

    I'm confused:D

    Hey guys, I found a kitten in a shed on my farm a few days ago, probably 3 months old, I live off farm and don't have a back garden so she's been in the house with us since. She's very good with doing her business in the litter box I bought but is firing 'litter' everywhere!

    I've tried using less litter and it doesn't seem to help, was wondering if somebody should recommend a litter box solution..

    Do you have to train cats to use the enclosed ones?

    As an aside my oh took to me arriving home with a kitten way better than I thought she would, she is not taking kindly to the cat firing litter everywhere.

    I think it's hilarious, but should be rectified.

    Thanks.

    You could always get an igloo litterbox and just take off the door until she seems use to it, then introduce the door once she has figured it out. Also, try and use cat litter like the paper pellets kind, if you use the saw dust or clay kind, I find them a LOT more messy to clean up.

    They are little miracles. Mammy now thinks she is too good for dog or raw food & only wants burgers & chips.

    Probably for their own protection so they don't exploded when they see the cuteness! There's no link popping up on mine either but I do wonder is it just the app?

    Buy an enclosed tray and take the door off it, cats are smart when it comes to toileting, she'll figure it out. Test out different litters, some are worse for spreading than others.

    Don't forget to worm her, if she was stray she's probably got worms.
