CL

Tonight I feel the need to address.......cat litter.....I tried to whisper when I typed that. I hope you heard me without straining your ears too much. The world is a divided place.....either you are a cat lover....or a cat hater. Dogs.....you can be ambivalent about...not cats. But here's the thing......things go in...things come out....surely I don't have to SPELL THIS OUT!! If you have an indoor cat, then you have cat litter. Everyday.....you must deal with it. So the question hangs in the air.....do you really look cute bent over a litter box scooping clumps, clods, ooooooo the indelicacy of it. I'm going to answer my question...YOU DO NOT LOOK CUTE. You just don't. No matter the outfit, the shoes, the fresh mani/pedi, cute hair...darlin' ya don't look cute. And then where the heck do you put the litter box? Is there any place in any person's house that has that ooooooooooooooo so purrrrrfect(sorry, couldn't resist) place to put a litter box? Have you ever read an ad in your local newspaper...in the real estate section... that touted a house because it had the perfect litter box space? Do builders work for hours on blue prints just to design that one spot where the cat can......DO IT'S THING? I have a cat...I have a litter box.....I have the angst of the entire thing. It's an abomination. I have a scoop. It's blue plastic....I wonder if I bedazzled it, I would feel better about the entire process. I really really wonder if Litter Boxes were in God's plan in the seven days he worked so hard to create the world. This begs the question.....were there litter boxes on the ARK....hey Noah...don't forget the litter box.....you'll be sorreeeeeeeeeeeeee if you do. Okay...I think you probably think I'm insane and I probably am. I really can't fathom that anybody else in the entire universe is blogging about litter boxes at this moment. I wish that made me feel special...the fact of the matter is...I'm a little sad and scared. No, make that a lot.

  1. You might be the only cat litter blogger around.

    You have neglected to mention how unattractive one looks bent over a toilet bowl with a scrub brush or plunger in hand. This thought assails me whenever I have to demean myself to do so. My daughter assures me this is no worse than cleaning poopy diapers.

    Cat litter's starting to look good to you now, right?
