We've KWITT the litter Kwitter....

Hi everyone, I've not posted much on here yet but Im hoping to find more time now we've quit the Litter Kwitter. Before I bore you with my experiences of The Litter Kwitter I'd just like to thank those that have looked at our pic's of the boys (I think I made it harder to find than it's suposed to be somehow). Im always looking at other peoples MC's, wondering when mine will look like little Lions, they're all gorgeous.
After two months of reasonable success with the Litter Kwitter (wee's) system we decided on Sunday enough was enough. There was only ever one poo in TLK, the rest were always on the floor next to it. This wasnt the problem, I had the patience and forsight to see passed that but it was reading on TLK forum on Sunday that changed my mind. Someone on there had had success with there cat but he said "if you can live with the guilt it's a great system" he went on to say how his cat originally pood once a day and weed through out, this changed to one wee a day or less and one poo every few days. In the mean time (from our experience) the cats are irritable and won't settle, going back and to to the toilet. He also wrote before you get to far into it read this..... and there was a link to a website....... Sophie Cat | The cutest cat in the World! .....where a girl had logged every experience with her bengal and TLK, it went from Dec '07 to April '09 and even then she gave up. So anyway, we had a major clean up everywhere and went and got a new extra large tray for two cats, put it down, poured litter in and before I had finished Bailey had weed in it and the second he got out Jasper was in there and I'm pleased to say they have been pooing to their hearts content, multiple times a day. It's as if they're making a point, showing their appreciation!
Thanks Guys,
Gra' & Fee

Well fair play to you for giving it a go, each to their own etc but i've never really fancied the idea. I know there are positives to the Litter Kwitter I suppose the main one is the cost of cat litter and secondly the mess ? everyone would have their own ideas on this one. I am finding that I have to completely change the litter every day. I have been extremely lucky with Harry he has never gone anywhere else in the house except for his tray, he hasn't even missed the target so to speak, that's not to say that he will when he gets bigger then I will have to think about getting a larger tray.

Thanks for your input ! :)

I'm one of those folks who am giving the L.K a shot.I've been using it for about 3/4 weeks.
no problems so far but I'm only at the red stage :blush:

I am happy to use a litter tray but we have very little space in our apartment and for Winston to be able to use the loo, would be a huge boost to the space we have in our apartment.
If it doesn't work though I won't force the issue.
I think by 4/6 mths it should be abandoned if your cat has not taken to it!

That is true, it really depends on the cat. There is no point trying for over 4 months if your cat hasnt taken to it, its not fair on them.

Ria : Hopefully will move on to amber this week.
We took a step backwards over the weekend with visiting family and brought his litter tray with us however he went back to using the LK this morning :smile:

It must be awful when you have tried for so long and it doesn't work out. I suppose it will depend on the cat and maybe the availability of the toilet. It must work with some cats as I've seen them doing it on youtube - it is a great idea if you can get them to. I am quite happy with our litter tray though - no hassle at all and Simba hasn't had an accident yet, apart from stepping in it once and having to be washed:LOL: Good luck to those of you that are still trying.
