    Oh, Donna - thanks for giving sweet Elan the love & affection he sure deserves.
    He looks like a very soft kitty.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016
    Charlie kitty, aka: Mr. Meowy. Our home is far too silent now. 2003-6/14/2018

    Elan is still going strong!! We have had a setback, though. It seems he misses the litterbox lately. I now have to put wee-wee pads around the boxes. So far he's been using them. He is definitely deaf, as I tested his hearing by screaming at the top of my lungs as I stood behind him. He didn't flinch. But hey, he's gonna be 19 soon, so it goes with the territory.

    He loves snuggling next to me on the futon, with his front paw wrapped around my arm, my hand scratching his chin. I love him so much!!!

    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    Oh, Elan, what a delight you are! Your Meowmie loves you so very much, and so do we!

    So... he misses the litter pan. Doesn't hear. But he's a snuggle boy! Your Meowmie loves you and this post gives me the leaky eyes

    AWWWW! Elan sure loves being loved! At least he uses the pee pads. Is the litterbox a bit too high for him?

    Give him extra scritchies for me and a lot of hugs!

    Catty1,

    I believe that might be the problem. I don't have conventional litterboxes. I have four 19 qt storage bins. Much easier than scooping 10 litterboxes. I have a cement mixing tub in my bathroom that he uses that is low. I may have to switch to those.
