To anyone who takes in rescues

You say he doesn't like the feel of litter on his feet... I like the suggestion above of the towel, but the whole time reading this thread I kept thinking, "what about newspaper?". Have you tried that yet??

[jenluckenbach]

I totally understand your frustration.

Other options, if you care to try, are:

An EMPTY litter box.
Newspaper, as suggested.
Puppy wee-wee pads at the bottom of the litter box.

And considering I am REALLY against outdoor ONLY kitties, even I think that having him outside would be better than putting him to sleep. As long as you feel he is still comfortable and loved. Do you have a garage or shed he could bunk in (maybe via a cat door).

What a beautiful boy Minion is. I have to agree with the general consensus about preferring him being indoors since he is declawed, but rather than having him euthanized, attempting a "safe" outdoor life for him! I know it is frustrating having him pee on your bath mats, but I would try putting a towel or smaller bath mat inside a litterbox in your bathroom. MAYBE that will work for him! I have found toilet seat covers (same fabric as bathmats) on clearance some times for $1.00 or $2.00 ..... you could try to buy several of those so that they are easier to wash, dry and replace quickly!

I hope you can find something that will work for you and your Minion!
