Hi Gloria, I thought about that and how convenient it would be, but right now I 
think the costs outweigh benefit. :( With four kitties we already go through 
cat litter about 3 20-some lb buckets a month. lol Not to mention we've had to 
buy a new car recently as well as had quite a few unexpected repairs around the 
house. I'm not sure I want to add dog litter to that too since I'd have to get 
it online as our local pet shop doesn't carry it. :( But I am definitely 
keeping it in mind. If we just can't seem to get her pottying outside again we 
won't have much of a choice. lol

Thanks Gloria!

  That's why a litter box is so good.  If she's home alone, if its too cold, if 
it snows, then she can use the box.  At all other times she can continue to go 
outside.

    Jaelyn has been pottytrained really good the last several months. Now 
however we're in the middle of a snowstorm for 3 days now. We have more than a 
foot and a half of snow. We finally got her housetrained and now the snow is 
here and her being from a warm state has never seen snow before. I'm having a 
really hard time getting her to pee/poo outside in the cold. She stands there 
shivering and looking up at me. (I always put at least a sweater or her sweater 
and jacket on depending on how cold it is.) I keep giving her the command we 
taught her 'Go Potty' and instead of going potty she walks back to the house 
and within an hour either peep's or poop's on the rug. :/  I know that snow, 
especially that much of it, is confusing to her and that I need to be patient 
with her until she learns. But does anyone have any suggestions to help make 
this go quicker for us both?

    Thanks so much guys!
