You all were right! The cats have been with me for over 8 years and never complained about the cleanliness of their litterboxes, but apparently they are becoming more demanding as they reach middle age. I switched to scoopable litter and scoop every day now. Also, I provide three litterboxes for the two cats to make sure they don't get overloaded. Today is Felix's fourth day out of the crate without a mess on the floor so it's looking good (since he went on the floor the day after I let him out last time).
I also got a laser light to exercise the boys and Felix loves it! Max thinks Felix is an idiot because he obviously knows it is NOT a mouse, bug, or anything else that needs chasing. Max just sits and watches Felix make a fool of himself. Unfortunately, Max is the heavier of my cats, but not terribly fat.
Thanks for all the suggestions, thoughts, and support.
Jacque
