    Awww I'm so glad that you have the chance to show him a better life than what it seems he was getting before. Poor Ali I'm glad he's getting along with your 2.

    Well, look at it this way, at least the guy gave Ali something to use as a litter box. Some people don't even do that. He's getting a better chance at a good life now that he's w/you. Poor little guy is scared, it's easy to see. Thank you for rescuing him and taking good care of him. Looking forward to a good report......
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Ali is a gorgeous boy!!

    Thoughts about the litter box... maybe he wanted something with high sides if he pees over the side of the regular litter box?? Not sure how high those sides are?? Does he have to jump to get in it?? I'm sure he wouldn't be too happy about having to do that. Who knows what his reasons were. I had used the really long low storage boxes for litter at one point, because I wanted more area for them to use cause they kept going over the sides and I also have big boys. Litter kept sticking to the bottom though, and I now have those gargantuan ones that they sell at PetSmart.

    I use a big storage container for Sherpa, because he's such a large cat and he scatters tons of litter. I've never seen a litterbox as big as the storage container I use. Guess that makes me a bad pet owner.

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    I was not saying he was a "Bad" pet owner, I just felt it was odd. I have never seen anybody use a storage container before, but appearntly it is very common....I am just finding this out. I was not trying to offend anybody....I am sorry if I have.

    Gary....he was actually named after Mohammad Ali by his momma's owner. I was told by his previous owner that Ali was born with the cord around his neck and his mama's owner had to blow in his nose and "bring him to life". She said he was a fighter and mostly black in color, so the name just fit. After Rober took him home at 8 wks of age, he said the name was too long, so he shortened it to Ali. None the less...he is a big boy and his name suits him well.

    Ali is still very scared and now is hiding under my desk behind my rolling cabinet. He came out last night and there was some hissing, but nothing more. I picked him up and he was just shaking so bad...all his muscles were tense too. Poor baby. I sure hope he realizes he is safe and he will get a loving home...a loving furr ever home.

    Thanks for the nice comments and again, aI am sorry if I offended anybody about the storage litter pan. I was not trying to.

    Ali, you are a big, handsome fella! and stupid me, I was trying to figure out who would name you Ali ("Alley") when it's really ah-LEE like the boxer. (Duh, Elyse, duh!)

    I'm so glad Ali is safe with you and I hope he finds a wonderful home. He's quite handsome but I'm partial to the black and whites.
    I just started using a rubbermaid container for my foster Barney because he pees over the side. I cut a hole just under the handle big enough for him to get in and out and thankfully it has solved the problem. The sides are ridiculously high but no more pee to clean up.
    I haven't used these boxes inside because I have covered boxes but I'm tempted to because some of my cats make the biggest mess kicking the litter out of the box.
    Thanks for rescuing Ali.

    Us too. All our cat boxes are large/deep totes because of litter flinging.

    Now I feel bad for thinking it was strange!! I guess a lot of people use them as litter boxes! I am using it for Ali, as he seems to be used to it and won't use the regular box! Silly me!!
