Thanks Phaewryn-- The tooth was already a temporary one (put in 4 years ago) that had decided to choose this weekend to make a break for it. The nerve had been taken out 20 years ago so fortunately no pain. So plenty of empathy to spare for poor Danny--it's time that's been the problem. Dentist

A big thankyou from my friend re Danny ( Kitty)follows below. Also a rundown of what she's now doing (but before she got the latest tips from you wonderful people). D'you think she really *should* be putting each litterbox in a different room. (It also sounds like she still has just the 2 boxes.)

Hey Kerry, Thank you for keeping us posted on Danny's progress. It does sound like his new momma is a kind woman and willing to work with him and Kitty in making the transition. I think she's a bit crazy if she's still being stubborn about not wanting to separate the litter boxes though!
