Bella has a habit of sneaking into the laundry room and eating the poop out of the cat litter. Of course the one who cleans the litter box is excited because he doesn’t have to clean it. However I have to follow her , then has to clean up her litter trail of poop and litter. Just great. She wont eat her food, but will eat the dirty litter? Anyone for a big smooch from this one?

If you feed the cat crushed pineapple mixed into the cat food the dog won’t eat the poo. Not sure why it works, but it does!

That’s interesting, kelly, especially as other dog owners have made the same complaint here as Bella’s.
And I like Bella’s very sympathetic face. What breed is she?

I wonder if that little tidbit (har!) would work o my doxie who loves her own poop, like some gross mobius strip in my backyard?!!

I cut a hole in the top of one of the larger Rubbermaid bins and put the litter in it. Now the dog can’t (or won’t) put his head in the hole to get the cat litter and the litter doesn’t get tracked all over the house.

We got a CleverCat Litter box to keep our terriers out of the ‘snack tray’ and it works like a charm!
They are usually cheaper than this at pet stores.
