Negative: They don’t flush (though I’ve heard of some who do!)
Benefit: No scooping.
Negative: You have to flush.
Benefit: Takes just as long as training them to use a litter box.
Negative: You risk her drinking out of a dirty toilet.
Negative: You’ll have to deal with a smelly bathroom if you don’t check to flush often…
Negative: You risk getting a dirty cat full of…. You know what…. sleeping on your bed in the night.
Unless you have time, don’t bother. Of course….
Benefit: No having to pay for a litter house and litter and a scooper.
Okay, first off, i think the only people who sucessfully have their cat use the toilet have way to much time on their hands. First off, how do you expect your cat to somehow stand on the far-spread seat and squat at the same time? they cant sit like humans- and even if they could- they’d fall in.
I wouldn’t waste your time- litterbox or outside on a leash(or no leash, whichever)
