People told me to get rid of my animals when we were bringing Samuel home. It's like..Pshhhhttt..please. I scooped cat poop during both my pregnancies.
Wow, I totally had stuff to get done tonight, but I chose to check my e-mail and blogs first. Bad idea! That was 9pm, it's now midnight and I'm still here. I got stuck on Cake Wrecks laughing my ass off! I'd still be there, but I'm about to pass out from exhaustion. Awesome site. There are some great shower cake ideas on there!
Don't tell Stewart about the litter box thing. I used that excuse to get out of litter doody for about 2 1/2 years from when we started trying to get pregnant until Sean stopped nursing at 12 months! Actually, it became such a habit that he's still doing it all!
Nice. I totally won't tell Stewart. I'd love for Neal to scoop the litter for me, but the problem with that is that it needs done two times a day now and he's lucky to remember to leave time to shower before going to work. There's just no way it would get done and that would be absolutely disgusting.
I will not be using any of those cake ideas for my shower. Ooo! Then again - I could do a life-size one of me pregnant!
Haha, I totally used it as an excuse to get Wes to clean out the litter box. But, yeah - I had the same problem as you potentially would - I had to constantly badger him to clean it, and we had a Littermaid, that automatically scooped out the litter!!
However. I just bought one of these - Scoop Free Automatic Litter Box - which comes with crystal litter, instead of the clumping clay type. I have to say, it's the BEST litter box I've ever had. You really don't have to scoop it! It doesn't get stuck and clogged like my Littermaid used to, and the smell is very contained now.
The only downside is that you have to replace the entire cartridge (including litter) which costs around $15, and for two cats, I have to replace it about every two weeks. Still, it's totally worth it for me.
My 2 cents...I thought for sure I would have already been exposed since I have been around cats all my life and even use to rescue strays. But I took the test to see and I had not been exposed. I was surprised.
Luckily Byron insists on cleaning the boxes for me. If I had to I would have done the same as you with the mask and gloves. Thank goodness I get to beg off of it.
People assume I will get ride of my 6 cats now that we are expecting. It won't happen I love them too much.
