Hi all, Well from a bachelor who also had carpet problems with my fuzzbutts. = Yes, some bachelors are HOUSEBROKEN!

The problem is that they all have scratched at the carpet at the bottom of the doors and they are beginning to ruin it." With mine I found out two things -- One: One of mine was a newly gained surrender and found out "believe it or not" she wanted to go out for walk!! Put on a leash and a harness, no more digging!! Two: Went to the local dollar store and purchased lengths of "Clear Vinyl Carpet Protector". These I cut to length and found some means of providing additional attachment to the floor. Each case was different. Some cases I could use clear vinyl tape, others duct tape, some tacks, whatever worked or looked good and presentable. Well the clear vinyl worked so well I also started using it in the corners for "additional" protection. No, MY fuzzbutts don't make or have accidents, THEY use the litterbox. It's the FLO, it's YOUR fuzzbutts that come here for clandestine meetings, they just don't have time to find the "facilities" *grin*. Ed - who didn't do it "yet" & the "didn't do it" innocents [Posted in FML issue 3122]
