Dan, 
Hadn't thought of using it for that!  Too funny!

maybe I could take cuttings when it gets bigger and place several short shrubs around the area the cats use.

A funny story about Calycanthus floridus, CAROLINA ALSPICE:  A couple
years
ago when I was doing master gardener phone duty, an elderly gentleman
called
and asked the name of the plant with red flowers that is planted around
outhouses to hide the smell. It had me baffled but since this was
important
to him, he brought a branch into the office. It was an easy id since I
have
a plant. A few other MGs said that they heard the same use for the plant
in
pre-indoor plumbing days.
