Don't you hate it when...

My TP is safe, from cats and dogs alike! Coco as a puppy got to it a few times. Now garbage cans are another story.

Kronos figured out how to get into my "pet proof" garbage cans in the bathrooms and will dig out, ahem... anything that smells tasty to him. Coco did that too which is why I got these new garbages to begin with. Solo simply thinks Coco and Kronos are disgusting!

But now nothing is safe. Kronos can open up lids.

Coco may have to learn a thing or two from Kronos lmao!

Keegan doesn't touch the tp, but you may find the face cloth or towel has been dragged out into the kitchen He will also take the toothbrushes!

Where does he take the toothbrushes, Anne? Does he hide them?

 

[Anne]

So far he's been kind enough to leave them where we can see them (and so far he's only picked on my husbands toothbrush, laugh). He loves to hide things though, we are still missing several rechargeable batteries - we have a charger that holds about 10, but didn't realize Keegan figured out how to remove them from the tray - when we came to get them from the charger they were gone.

Tink doesn't bother with toilet paper or towels. She enjoys taking all of her toys out when the housekeeper comes. The housekeeper gathers the toys & puts them in a basket. Tink takes them all out again. This goes on the entire time that they are at the house. At times, I think they play with her more than they clean. Two weeks ago, while we were on a cruise, I told my daughter that she could grill the fillet mignons that were in the freezer and swim in our pool when she had out of town guests. They came over, took the fillets out of the freezer and put them on the counter to thaw. The two couples then went out for lunch. When they got back, the ziplock freezer bag was on the floor, the freezer bag in shreds and 4 fillets with bite marks, claw marks etc. So much for grilling steaks. Sue

I'm a HS guidance counselor and off in the summer. Last summer when we were treating Tink for TF, she had to have the medicine twice a day, which she did not like to take. She would hide and we would have to close off most of the rooms in order to catch her. We would have to chase her onto the pool deck, open the pool bath door and force her to run into the bathroom. She would jump into the tub to hide and then we could grab her, wrap her in a towel and give her the medicine. I did not drive my car for a week. When I went to get my car keys and go somewhere, they were gone. We still have not found them. I think she hid them because she was mad at me. We have searched everywhere and still can't find the single key on a small leather key fob. Sue

I hate to brag, but at my house TP, Kleenex and paper towels are safe from prying paws! I don't know why....they are all left out on the counter and whatnot. None of my SVs are the least interested in shredding them.....I must have defective Savannahs! lol

You are lucky. I have only a problem with TP, and it is only two cats that destroy it, Vinnie and that overgrown fluffy thing aka Barthalamew the Maine Coon! I have no problems with tissues or paper towels either. The TP issue was solved when that one TP company started the "respect the roll" thing and you can now buy the little roll canisters for a buck at Target in also sorts of cute patterns. I think it is Scott that started the TP roll container thing.

Okay- maybe it's my problem... And this is embarrassing- LOL.

First, I hate it when visitors come to my house and have to use the bathroom. Because then I have to race ahead of them to the bathroom and pull out the hidden toilet paper so they can 'do their deed'. Seriously- my F1 is horrible with toilet paper. Oddly- the only thing that has worked is a purse hanging off the towel rack with the toilet paper in the purse. He opens drawers to go for the toilet paper, he climbs to the top of the medicine cabinet for toilet paper, he has dug under towels for the toilet paper, and pre-fluffed the TP when we tried a TP cover. The only thing he has not figured out (and I don't know why) is the magic purse!

And then... I HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT when I go in the bathroom... You know that moment, when you go and no one is around- the cats aren't around for once, the dogs aren't around, the kids are in another room and it's like, "Ahhh... quiet!". THEN you realize the ONE roll of TP you keep in the bathroom is GONE and you need to duck walk down the hall to get a darn roll of TP because you can't KEEP the whole block of toilet paper in the bathroom like a NORMAL PERSON.

Yep. You gotta love these cats. LOL. Otherwise, you wouldn't rearrange your whole life around their naughtiness!

Before we started using the TP containers, I would always be telling guests, the TP is in the drawer! I am sure I must have sounded like some sort of nutcase...sigh.

Believe me, it took some training on my part as well to get myself to use it...
