Every single time I try to scoop out the pee and poop in the litter boxes, Buffy comes running and won't give me peace. If I scoop the scooper into the litter, Buffy reaches her paw in and snags one of the bars on the scooper with a nail. Then she pulls the scooper towards her, and I'm trying to pull it away, because theres poop on it and if she manages to get it towards her, the litter thats in the scooper will leak out through the bars and get all over the floor. Well, if I'm pulling the scooper away from her, she'll usually let go, but its like a spring. The scooper flies away from Buffy, and I'll be lucky if the poop doesn't go sailing across the room.
And sometimes, when I'm trying to level the litter, so there aren't any bald spots in the corners or something, she'll jump in and will start digging like a dog. That causes the litter to go flying out of the box. Its cute, when you stand back and look at it, but when you're bent over, hair in your face, trying not to breath in the smell (not that its bad, but I've got a phobia about the dust clumping up in my lungs
), then its kind of frustrating when Buffy makes it so hard. I tried shutting her in her carrier, but she screamed bloody murder. I positioned the box so she could see what I'm doing, but she just started wailing, poking her paws through the bars as if she'd been shut away in prison. So... Is there any hope?
