I did the same with a pack of the super absorbent and soft towels. It took about 5 months to get back to using the litter box in the old place. The last month I used a rubbermaid container lid in front of the box with the toweling laid on it. Sometimes he would use both, the toweling to pee and the box to poop. I was lucky, I could just pop the towels into my washing machine each day. If I didn’t have that I would have probably bought the super cheap package of a few hundred and tossed em. Plus side, litter costs went way down. Vinegar to add to each load wasn’t to expensive once I found the huge bottles of cleaning vinegar in the cleaning isle. I did my absolute best to control my disgust and praised him every time he peed where I preferred and totes ignored when he didn’t. It wasn’t his fault and it was hard on us both. But he lived after surgery to correct his scarred urethra for another 12 years. After recovery he never peed on my stuff again. In the recovery phase I bought waterproof mattress, couch, and cushion covers. I’m sorry you had to go through this too.

Gorgeous Tortie!

The Grand Budapest Hotel. Whitest feeling movie I’ve seen.

Cough syrup vomit in cough syrup? Yeaaaah, no. 🤢

Everyone I know drinks red bull. I’ve never tried it, it smells like cough syrup vomit. Please don’t ask me how I know, it was traumatic. I’ve watched a close friend crack one open first thing in the am, she looks so happy. Blurggggggh.

Inspector Han: PRESENT PLATE! Looks up, are you really going to eat that? Slow walk away with disgusted tail twitch. Inspector Chewbacca: Oh, heya mum. Watcha gots der? Sniff sniffy sniff wuffle. Meh. Sits beside me with his paw on my lap. Pointedly not looking at my plate. Side eyeing every bite. Doesn’t look disgusted, but makes it clear he’s making sure it doesn’t kill me. Their food: royal canin duck and pea. Chicken allergies in Han. Me: beans, lentils, rice and whatever veg is in the clearance sections. I miss dairy. Their food smells delicious. At least I love beans lol.

In my fifty’s. Lots of anti anxiety prescriptions and antidepressants. I’m doing better now. I feel more like what the inside of my head looks like. YMMV.
