A litter of Glass
A major problem is encountered as a cat owner involves your cat to use (or non-use) of her litter.
This is probably one of the most frustrating problems that arise in caring for your cat. You buy a litter box, often expensive, fill it with litter of good quality, so is your cat is urinating or defecating anywhere else in the home. Even more frustrating is when you discover that your cat is hisbusiness near the litter, but not him.
You have obviously taken your cat to the vet, who pronounced "healthy". Then, you have ruled out any physical illness. You changed you clean litter. They made sure that no other cat can go in their field.
Yet still to do - there are still problems:
or your cat is going somewhere else in the house
Or your litter is near theBox
or your cat is half in and half out
The last option can often be solved more large box for a: something like a bowl that your cat may still be in and out without too much trouble, but will only scat in the tank (not the cat) to.
But the first two difficulties often remain.
The offender INVISIBLE
What could be the problem? I would like a possible answer in one word: plastics pose.
Most of the waste boxno matter how burdensome or expensive, are made of plastic or other.
Plastics are polymers, large molecules, which ... chemically produced "concatenate" smaller molecular units. Sometimes the units are all identical, sometimes vary in composition and are repeated with some regularity. But all plastics are "organic" compounds.
If you forgot your school chemistry, organic compounds are made mainly of carbon and hydrogen, sometimes with other elements such asNitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur thrown in.
The plastic boxes used to build the cost of cat litter most are relatively flexible - can easily be bent. If you take your to get clean, you can bend as you run, the door. It 'consists of a flexible plastic.
plastics are flexible in this way with the addition of what made the "extender". Plasticizers are small organic molecules, most of phthalates, which are added to the polymerincrease their flexibility.
Other litter box, especially those self-cleaning are not as flexible. Since they are self-cleaning, are not designed to collect and are usually composed of several smaller, harder, built plastic parts.
hard plastic forming molds (molds, poured into the plastic where it is difficult and takes shape). The forms allow the first with a "release agent" Agent for the removal of the plastic part of the form - otherwise coatedIt would remain there and stay there.
Both materials - the plasticizer and release agent, as the residue that remains on (or in) the plastic. And both materials can "outgas", which is in the air, to be released, according to your bedding is made immediately, in cases of plastics flexible now.
They are there ...
So if you've tried everything to induce the cat "go" in his litter box and nothing worked, it could be thatYour cat is sensitive to the issue of plasticizers or box agents used in the manufacture of their waste? Even if you smell something, maybe your cat can.
Plastic is a material essentially unnatural. Was not found in nature before man came and started throwing food containers and litter box, and was not a factor in the evolution of cats.
Maybe your cat is sensitive to it, and it makes you realize that in reality defecate somewhere, far away from that source of anger. Or maybe the plastic trigger an unnatural behavior of your cat, what defecate in half and half.
Do not Tell your guests ...
Try the bedding material. Try a basket for waste glass.
But they say there are bins for waste glass for sale! Where can I find one?
I went to the glass some time ago by converting a shallow dish in a baking> Litter box. My wife used to cook baked potatoes, and I grabbed him unconscious for a different use, to their great sorrow ... uh ....
Of course, a plate is flat and the cat litter is easily thrown by a moat, but I put newspaper under (and not a plastic mat), to capture litter thrown. I have two cats in a row now, and not have a problem to do "was their act" in any other place.
Then try. Of course there is no needSay that once you convert the baking dish in a box, this is the end of the transaction for dinner to cook baked potatoes for your guests arrive, if over.
Or at least it's a good idea, after eating, in order to respect this fact.
