Day 7--Set Back

It seems that one of the kitties--not sure which one--is having issues with using the litter inside the toilet. I went downstairs last night, and saw that the floor was wet, but couldn't really figure out what the problem was because the basement is pretty damp (if anyone is getting rid of their dehumidifier, let me know). Well, this morning, I was putting clothes in the dryer, and I see Dwight back up to the corner! I yell his name, and he just looks and me and then walks away like he wasn't going to do anything.

It gets better.

I went home for lunch today, and I thought I would check on the status of the litter box. It seems that one of the cats gets it perfectly--there some pooh and some wet litter indicating that someone had peed in there. But then, I look down and see a turd on the floor that someone had tried to cover with all the toilet paper they unrolled. There is some progress here though--at least the poop was in the bathroom--next to the toilet.

So, I reread all the hints on this training thing, and was told to take a step back because they aren't ready. I figure, one of them seems to be getting and one doesn't so I don't want to go all the way back. Instead, I moved the pan from inside the lid, to the top of lid. The next step will be to go inside the lid, but for now, baby steps.

I will keep you posted--I know it is riveting.
