Cut the legs off a wooden chair from Goodwill or curbside on trash day. Cut off the legs and a hole to fit the equipment.

Huh? Then how would be any different than an elevated cat box? The point is having a flushable toilet, right?

I have no idea, but it was just the start of a thought. Flushing sand down the toilet??? Wouldn't that clog the pipes a bit?

Any cat I have ever had, has never ever been allowed anywhere but on the floor and in their own bed. If it wasn't built for cats, then they don't belong there. Would you let your dog up there?

I'm sure it would. I think the point is to try and train the darlings to defecate in the water.

Unless you're home every minute or have a camera in your kitchen, you can bet a cat will do what he darn well chooses, including walking all over counters and stoves.

About allowing dogs up there, it reminds me of a story. We took in a stray dog many years ago who had most likely been used to eating anything available, including neighbors garbage cans. I served a nice roast beef to my family for dinner and we went upstairs to the family room to eat. When I came back down, the roast on the pull out bread board was missing and Sam the stray was licking his chops under the dining room table with a "who ME?" look on his face. He lived to be old and happy with us for the next 15 years. Loved that good ole boy!

I gather that "they" make flushable litter - presumably for people who live in flats/apartments to save extra treks to the garbage bins.

I wouldn't want to risk it with my drains though. There's a kink in the connection to the main sewer which gets blocked from time to time. Fortunately it's outside my boundary so I don't have to pay for the unblocking although the water company did try it on once and were told where to go!

I used the flushable stuff when Shreddy had radioactive poop after the I-131 treatment. It was recommended by the vet.

I read that it is either illegal or discouraged in California. They don't want the sea otters to get toxoplasmosis from infected cat poop.
