I have been so proud of Shelby these last two weeks, I guess I expected to skate through this period without any problems....no more.
She had been using her own private litter box but we moved it near the adult's box. This all came about because Persi decided to steal kitten food at any opportunity he could. So we would set Shelby into the bathroom where she could eat her own food behind closed doors and we placed the adult's food on top of the washer where she can't get YET.
The problem now is we can no longer leave her in the bathroom alone to eat because she hops into the bath tub and uses that right after eating. I guess the answer is to now stand guard while she is eating and then carry her and set her in her own litter box as soon as she is done eating. Any quick fixes I'm not thinking about? BTW, she will steal the adult's food any chance she gets.
