The Pet Extraordinarium - Helping our rescue fund with commission

[LeighK]

Hiya,

Thanks for the offer but I've got enough mouths to feed as it is 

My lot are doing their level best to reduce the EEC cat food mountain 

[maryas]

They are welcome to my quilted andrex and they might even have a few puppies to play with when they've finished.

[LeighK]

Well I suppose they could use it for reading Mary but their not going to use my triple velvet ! 

[maryas]

A cat on a toilet ................  when are we going to give them a newspaper to read too? 

Mary

[LeighK]

Great I've got to get my lot one of these as soon as they're back in stock for the boys except for Suzie as she lives in the bedroom I'd have to have a new en-suite loo installed as well 

"LITTER KWITTER

RRP: £39.99
OUR PRICE: £31.99
YOU SAVE: £8.00 (20%)

Ever wished your cat could use the toilet? No, us neither...but lots of people have, and this magnificent Australian invention has taken the world by storm and was recently featured on The Jonathon Ross Show [click here to view clip]

Essentially, Litter Kwitter will gradually teach nearly any cat to perch on the seat and, well, use the toilet! No more stinky litter tray and no more cleaning up. It's a very simple but ingenious idea that uses a 3 step process, a seat device and colour-coded plastic disks. The red disk, which is full of normal cat litter, is put on the rim of the toilet so your cat learns to hop up. Once it's got the idea, you start using the amber disk, which has a hole in the middle but still uses litter. The final step is the green disk, with a bigger hole so that your cat can balance on the seat and go, knowing that everything will end up in the toilet. After that, remove the disk altogether and voila!...a toilet-trained cat! Now all you have to do is teach kitty to flush... "



I think the operative term here is will gradually teach nearly any cat

I'd hate to think of Frankie trying this as he's so heavy he'd have the bowl away from the wall 

I can hear myself explaining to them, "okay boys just think of it like traffic lights, when it turns green go!"  or "Oh Alfieeeeeeeeeeeee, you've forgotten to put the lid down again!!"

Mind you, you can only empathise with the cat as Jonathan Ross usually has that effect on me too

Frankie likes to dig his way to the centre of the earth, heaven knows what might happen if he extended that habbit to paddling I'd have a mini Tsunami in the flat

And finally, I love the expression on the cat's face in the advert as if to say "I'd give it five minutes if I was you" 

Cheers

Leigh

We were only saying yesterday we need to get something for Kylie as she loves to be out and she tried to shelter under a garden chair when it's mild but raining - I will try to twist an arm tonight 

One question - kylie is a big girl - 7kg. Will she have trouble getting in & out?

Hi Mark

OK, the opening at the front is about 7 inches wide and about 9 inches high if that's any help?

Paul

Thanks Paul,

That's a shame, I think 7" would be too much of a squeeze for her as it's about the same width as the cat flap.

[MrsR]

OMG I love loads of their stuff - role on pay day as I'll be buying tons

Here's an example of the jackets

http://metpet.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/walkingjacket.html


I spent £30 on it as I remember my mums kitten chewing his normal harness off on one side as he hated it, the vet advised us to put it on him and leave him alone in a room so he could get used to it, by the second time we did this he'd ruined it 

these one's are great as they cant get out as easily and cant rub them if they struggle

[Mark]

I won't 

[Tiggy's Mum]

Don't forget to go through the link at the bottom of the page if you order Mark - the Purrs rescue fund will get 10% of your order value if you do 

[Mark]

Thanks Paul - I have seen them before but hesitated as at the moment, she has a standard cat flap and it is like squeezing toothpaste out of the tube when she goes in or out 

[tpepaul]

She IS a big girl! 

Shouldn't imagine there's any problem whatsoever as it's a decent sized hole, but I'll measure the opening tomorrow for you and let you know. The front has a clear plastic cat flap on it to keep the weather out, but it just clips on, so if you don't want it there (in the summer, say), you just take it off. I'll get back to you on the opening though...

I am interested in the Katkabins, what are they made of please?

Cool aren't they? They're made of a tough and sturdy plastic which is actually pretty light too - it weighs about 6kg. Inside, the base is insulated and padded for comfort. You don't necessarily have to put anything inside them, but we're giving away a free insulated liner at the moment anyway. The only difference between the standard ones and the deluxe or jungle ones is the design - same materials, same quality. Having seen them all, I personally like the deluxe versions, but it's personal choice. Normal delivery is 2-3 days.

Anymore questions, just shout!

Would you be able to start stocking cat 'walking jackets'?

Now that's a new one on me! Cat walking jackets... 
I've never come across them, but we do sell quite a few harnesses, so hey, why not?! I'll keep an eye open...

This is great

Would you be able to start stocking cat 'walking jackets'? I had one but it's been tidied away by my partner lol 

They are great very sturdy, not that I have a cat to use one with yet 

[likabu]

Wow - 10%, that's really great isn't it?!

It would depend what it was, Millysmum.
We already sell a brand called Kitty Hoots by a company called Fat Cat, which is fantastic. We originally took these in several months back on trial, but they've been so popular that we're looking to add more. At our store in Wallingford, we actually have people coming in especially to buy them as the word has spread that we stock them. As always, we tried them on our own cats first, and the reaction was amazing. In fact, Lilly STILL plays with one of them now - and as you know, cats normally get bored of the same toys after a while. I think it's to do with the catnip in them - it just seems to really get and maintain their interest. There are a few on the site at the moment - Eeeks!, Ratateenies, Catnip Couture, Tail Chasers & Dem Dumb Birdies.

Like I say though, it would depend what they are...

[Millys Mum]

Are you able source US toys? Helen has imported several for her spoilt neglected boys and they seem better than the same old stuff you get in the UK

[tpepaul]

Thanks Tan.

May I just say that we're delighted to be supporting Purrs in our Hearts & cat rescues. A lot of the fantastic work that rescue centres do goes unnoticed and unappreciated, so if we can help out even in a small way, we're really pleased to be able to do so.

In my short time here I've been overwhelmed by the passion that the people who visit this forum have for their cats, and genuinely impressed with the knowledge and strength of opinion that people demonstrate. In my opinion, Purrs in our Hearts is a brilliant forum for exchanging ideas and information, and it's really you guys that made us want to get involved and to try and help out in the first place.

As Tan says, please use the link at the bottom of the page and if you have any problems when purchasing or don't know where to enter the special code, please email us at service@thepetextraordinarium.co.uk and someone will get back to you. And also, while we can't get hold of EVERYTHING in the pet world, we CAN supply far more than is on the website. So if there's something you're especially looking for or can't find, or would just like some advice, don't hesitate to email us mentioning Purrs or post here, and we'll do our best to help out.

Take care

Paul
