I returned Pepper to the animal shelter yesterday, even though I had had him since Feb. 1 st.,this year. The main reason was because instead of getting better about pooping in the litterbox, he was getting worse. He would poop where ever he wanted, usually at the door threshholds, and around the litter boxes I have scattered throughout the house. I miss him, but he was causing me too much extra work in cleaning up after him, especially in the bathtub. When ever I want to take a shower, I have to clean up the kitty poops first. So, I took him back to the animal shelter yesterday. He is a very affectionate kitten, but his pooping habit was getting out of hand. I even cleaned and refilled their litter tubs the otherday, and he still did not want to use them. That is when I decided to return him, even though the others use them. I hope this is the first and the last time I have to do this sort of thing.
Yesterday, they had a little snowshoe or Himmy kitten there, which I was ready to take, but Laurie said that someone else had already claimed him. Since I volunteer my mornings at the shelter on Thursdays I'll look into exchanging Pepper for another kitten.
They also have another all black kitten there who is quite a character. I was asked to take her, because of the antics she does when any one walks by her cage. I may come back with her today.
