Betty Landercasp Webboard User Reg: 11-30-2009 Posts: 3724 Loc: minnesota Offline	If I leave town, or my dog thinks I MIGHT be leaving, Pinker, an odd dog to be sure, pouts and sleeps in the cat box in the mud room. He has many other options for soft and safe resting. His sleeping in the cat box prevents the cat from going in there, plus when he gets up he leaves cat litter crumbs all over the house. Crating him solves the problem. My question is, why ? It's a tight fit. He never eats the cat turds either. I don't get it. http://s922.photobucket.com/albums/ad67/Grasvaly/
