Man vs Cat: War for the Bathroom

[zimzy]

another idea aside from

buy -- locking -- doorknob

how about

--fill tub with water--

i like it

[burrito]

Water in the shower might not do much. I had a cat that would ninja shit in the bath tub, and when we filled it with water so he wouldn't jump in there, he just began to sit on the edge and hang his ass over and drop the deuce ~.~

Rather than put/smear the cat poos in your brother's bed, hide them around the room, so the whole room can be nice and foul smelling. When he bitches can give the "guess he found a new spot since the pan is always full."

... or just buy one of those automatic scooper pans. Bit noisy, but fantastic for the lazy*


*unless your cat makes poos the size of potatoes

I'm 25, he's 19. And really, the cats belong to him and our mother. I'm not putting shit in anyone's bed, that's a bit too direct. If I can get the cat to shit on their things himself though, then I'm gold. Because then no one can say it's my fault their things are befouled.

an honest suggestion, don't put the poop itself on the bed, just put the litter tray on their beds or in their room, and write a note beside it saying "Your kitty litter is full and your cat is pooping in my shower instead, please take care of your pet"

If they don't want to listen, then here you go :

http://www.cat-repellant.info/

a website dedicated to getting rid of those meddling kids, err, cats. It includes natural remedies like certain plants that have smells that repel all mamals, you could probably leave them in your bathroom and the cat wouldn't like it.


This one is my favourite :

Silent Roar is a cat deterrent that comes supplied as pellets that you spread over the vulnerable areas of your garden or yard.

Silent Roar cat repellantThe pellets are soaked in real essence of lion dung and are then dried and sterilised. As cats are territorial, even the bravest of pussies will retreat when they smell a lion has been there first. This is an environmentally friendly product and contains no artificial chemicals.

Tricks the kitten into thinking a LION is in the bathroom.

May I suggest wiring the floor of your bathroom to emit electrical charge when someone steps on it? That should be enough to deter anyone from using your bathroom, cat or brother alike. Just don't forget to turn it off when you go in yourself.

Typically speaking, when it comes to animals you must catch them shitting in your tub, then proceed to dunk him head first in the toilet. That way he'll remember "If I shit in master's tub, fucker tries to drown me"

But what will you do when it starts dropping deuces in your car?

[Xiona]

the obvious answer here is to butter the floors

[archibaldcrane]

I'm 25

Oh. The most obvious answer is to move out of your mom's house.

I was waiting for that.

[Thoronas]

Welcome to the boomerang generation.

What the fuck is with all these suggestions about doing this passive aggresive stuff like throwing the cat turds in your brothers bed? Just wait for your brother to come into your bathroom one night then ambush him and rub his nose in his cats dirty dirty little business. I assume you're bigger than he is. If not you could, I don't know, TALK to him about this.

[Septimus]

I was going to suggest the same thing, but more along the context of "why the hell would you want to live with a bunch of nasty, filthy, trifling people like that".

I know two people who might want to have a conversation with the OP's mother and brother...

Having my own place has been at the top of my TDL for a while now. However, as much as I hate to admit it, the bathroom thing is a small price to pay. I'm fortunate enough that they help me pay tuition and don't charge me rent to stay here. Therefore, I'm taking advantage of the situation while I can. Yes, living in mom's house sucks. Yes, I know I'm fast approaching the 30yo lusar who lives with mom benchmark. I tried to get them to sell me my grandmother's house, but they won't do it :/

[pirahna1]

Another option, since you said you want the cat to dump on your brother's things...

How clean is your bro? Does he leave dirty/clean clothes on the floor? How about a bookbag or gym bag? If he let's ANYTHING cloth/vinyl/leather/ something of that material lay around, place a piece of that article in your tub. The cat will assume that it's ok to go do-do on that material and start doing the deed on w/e is laying around your brother's room instead of your tub. They ALWAYS take the easy route when it comes to these things. If your brother's room is easier to access she'll take that route instead of your tub.

My cat (before we got it) used to piss on leather/vinyl. When we adopted her she pissed on our vinyl couch instead of her litter box. When we got a cloth couch it stopped. Cat's are weird about the feel of material like that. Oh, and whenever we let something lay on the floor she takes that as a clue that she can be lazy and piss on that instead of walking 15 feet to her litter box.

Get that cat in a habit and it'll keep it, for a long, long time.

Well, since it's not your place, not your cat, and not your shower, why not just use the shower your brother uses and leave the shit in the other shower for someone else to clean up? Or just shower in the evenings for a while and leave the shower alone in the mornings so someone will have it cleaned by the time you get home.

There's anti-pee spray stuff, it's not amazingly effective but it can help. It's like a hormone scent crap that only they can smell yada yada. I'd suggest try spraying that in your bathroom and bedroom and stuff, see if that does any good.

[Aysel]

Can't believe no one posted this tip yet, aside from the obvious first (talk to your cat owners blah blah) you could try placing (even scotch tape it down) aluminum foil over the sides of the tub (or heck...your whole floor). Cats hate the feel of it on their feet. Granted the cat could always jump over it all to get to your tub floor but its a cheaper method than buying chemical sprays/herbs that might end up not even working for you.

:bagel: Go on.

I actually kinda knew this a little bit, a little bit. My sister has a cat (grey tabby). Saw her baking one day, and somehow got on the counter. she had foil out for her sheets.... cat tried to walk on it, and by god she pawed it, and she actually hissed and jumped down.
