Glad to hear Mushroom returned to you. It's an awful feeling not knowing where they are or if they are okay. With your help she'll probably adjust to indoor life quite well. Just remember, you'll be her entertainment now.

If Mushroom didn't have a problem using the kitchen sink for a tinkle, she might be a good candidate to try to toilet train. I've tried it before and it worked quite well for 4, in a house of 6, cats. Well, until I forgot to take the training pan out because I was sick and I used their training pan. None of them would ever use the pan again - not even a new one. Just watch the weight requirements on the training pan you use. I'd give anything if I could train the ones I have now, but two of the three are over the weight limit. (Does anyone know if they make "plus sized" toilet training kits?)
