This. When you start seeing poops outside the box this is why.

Get one of those big plastic tubs and use it for a litterbox. They'll never complain again.

We use those large metal bins used in food service because the metal makes it so easy to clean.

Edit: This.

[–] StickyDango@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Thanks, I'm never going to look at these the same again.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

We were informed the high walls of a plastic tub were preferable. :D

Cat also seems to have short legs, might make squatting difficult.

Get a bigger box, And more fiber in the diet too, lol

"Damn dry food....urrrrgghhh...."

[–] teft@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Some people wipe standing and others wipe seated.

The more you know.gif

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Aw shit, not this again

How the fuck do you wipe while standing

Are y'all's elongated prolapsed buttholes somehow just hanging out?

[–] lichtmetzger@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You just put the fabric between the cheeks, I don't see the problem.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Surely you're taking the ~~piss~~ shit

[–] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's more of a squat, hovering over the toilet seat.

Sit in a chair, rest your elbows on your knees, and lift your ass. Now, use the elbow of your non-wiping arm to keep the support while you wipe using the other arm's hand.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Note how that does not involve standing

[–] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're not standing upright, but standing in a squatting position. Semantics, I guess.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not standing, then, but squatting, or leaning while seated.

[–] ieatpillowtags@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

No, it’s higher than a full squat, and you aren’t really leaning on anything. If you want to be super fucking pedantic you could call it a half stand I guess, but the point is your butt is off the seat.

There’s no good word for that position, and you’re doing your best to point out perceived flaws in wording rather than trying to understand.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If someone said the word "standing" to you, that's not what you would picture.

You don't have to lean on anything to lean.

Yes, we're going to "be super fucking pedantic," if you insist on getting bent out of shape about it. First day on the Internet?

[–] ieatpillowtags@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

OK smart guy, which word would have been better?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] ieatpillowtags@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok but that’s not some universally recognized term, and is more ambiguous than what you objected to. Try again?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nope. The fallout of that whole literal shitshow revealed that basically everybody wiped their ass in a similar fashion unless they were of the enlightened bidet elite (which is moot because you still gotta dab so you don't get swamp ass).

It's the new term. Embrace. Evangelize. Wipe.

[–] ieatpillowtags@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh ok so you never had a point that you were capable of defending, lost the plot a couple posts ago, and have now decided that it’s everyone else’s fault.

Welcome to the internet! First time?

I have a bidet like a proper hygienic member of society.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Make gravity do all the work, smart

[–] mechoman444@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Guys we've all been there right? That last picture is so relatable!

[–] stonedtemplepilot@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Any time I think cats can't get any more weird and loveable, I catch memes like this lol.

New life hack unlocked.

[–] HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My cat does that. It is a hygienic or a comfort thing.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago

Omg wtf. First out-loud exclamation of the day. This kitty…

I'm surprised he didn't pick up a magazine beforehand
