I went with an outoor love seat and 2 chairs with removable cushions. I have a
glider already. If someone comes over I'll get the cushions out of the spare
bedroom and put them on the patio furniture. lol.
I think you could mix the cat attract. Maybe start out with it straight, and if
it works, start mixing regular back in I had one cat years ago that cat
attract worke for.
I also know people use the small kiddy wading pools for litter boxesI've
never tried that, but when it got bad in the past, I just put litter boxes in
every room they used. I sat them on the sofas, on a chest at the bottom of my
bed, etc... I'm down to 5 cats, but I still have to separate food and water
dishes in all different rooms I always have more food bowls than there are
cats. You might increase the number of litter boxes and spread them out. The
cats do like to corner and pounce on unsuspecting victims eating or in the
litterbox!
God bless you and all who rescue. Believe it or not, I've had more dog problems
recently. I haven't even moved the patio furniture from the basement where it
was delivered up to the living room. My old sofas are in various stages of
being taken apart since I can't give them to Goodwill! I've been 'handicapping'
the back deck stairs with lights and astro turf to prevent falls from a couple
of elderly dogs
Happy New Year!

Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Bedwetting Cat sofa advice?
To prevent the bedding and sofa covers from being snatched off the furniture
by the cat you can purchase sticky-back Velcro. Attach one side to the
underside of the plastic sheeting or whatever you are using and place the
matching strip on the sofa and press down to stick it to the sofa material.
It doesn't have to be perfect but it will prevent the plastic from drifting
away off the sofa. You can also use things like metal clips purchased at an
office supply store to clip the plastic to the sofa. Use enough of them. You
can also purchase screw pins that are used to pin sofa covers to old
furniture. Doesn't do any damage. The small hole it makes closes up when the
pin is removed.
Have you thought about buying a fitted sofa and love seat cover? You can have
the back plasticized with a
heat process. You have to look this up in the phone book though, under
plasticizing or phone an upholstery company and see if they can do that.
As a last resort, put your sofa and love seat and TV in a separate room that
can be closed off and put plastic lawn furniture in you living room and turn
the living room over to the misbehaving cat.
I'm going to buy some of that cat attract litter. Can it be mixed with pine
litter or clay litter? I can't afford anything very expensive. I usually get
donated litter here. I have so many cats who think outside of the box that I
no longer use a pooper scooper. I use a small yard shovel. Sigh. The
President of one of our rescue organizations is going to build an outside
shelter attached to a shed on her property for 15 cats who will never learn
litter box protocol. They were rescued after their former owner passed away.
They are older
cats with set habits and some health issues, not adoptable. It seems like the
cat rescue movement is filled with saints and angels, the best of the human
species.
