Re: Re: OT - cat vs me - I win!

It hasn't moved since. In fact, I think they sort of like it.  It's like the
bumper footbar you might see around a liquor bar where you would place your
feet if you hopped up on a stool.  They step up to the waterbowl with their
feet on the rubber tire.  No spills all week!

This doesn't mean I win every battle.  Seamus still starts whining at 6am
because Slugger is positioned to attack him as he comes out of the
litterbox.  There's nothing I can do to shut him up.  When Spring comes,
Seamus will be outside every night - he prefers it.
