    Is there anyway to...

    prevent a cat from shredding my toilet paper??? I don't know who the culprit is (my gut feeling is Alicat) but I can't even keep a roll whole on the tp holder!!! UGH!!

    Remember my Lilith, Donna? She used to love to shred toilet paper and paper towel. Vixen also liked to do it on occasion but not like Lilith did. (God I miss that girl!) The only thing that worked for us was to keep the bathroom door closed tight at all times. As for the paper towels we had to keep those in a cupboard with an elastic on the door to stop her from getting those.

    Good Luck.

    The only one way we have found too stop the shredders. We put the TP on so that it feeds from the rear and when we find someone going for it our handy swart bottle come in to play. Usually after a couple of time the shredding stops.

    Yeah, we had to do the same with thing with Halo. We just had to make sure to close the door -- especially when we weren't there. It took a while, but she lost interest. Now, we can keep the door open when we leave.

    Donna, there is NO way sweet Alicat is responsible for this shredding: the Toilet Paper Genie is the culprit!

    Sorry, that is the ONE thing I have yet to deal with, in 14 years of owning cats, so no ideas from me on this one.

    I haven't found a way to stop it yet, I had to take ours off the toliet paper holder as well .... I'm sure I have a photo someone where of my little man sitting beside the mess in the bathroom...

    He used to do it all the time

    I've got one of those too!!!
    My toilet paper is in my closet under the sink. Not b/c of that but b/c I ran out of room when I got a new hot water tank. But if the door is open too long Kloe attacks. I came home from work one nite and there must have been a bit of toilet paper sticking out from under the door but by the time I got home - the roll was empty and shredded! I'm surprised Keegan didn't eat it - she loves to eat tissues.
