You come and clean up then! :-)))))))))) Everyone told me it was because my cats were adult (Cats Protection or living in compost heaps) when I got them and if you had them from kittens you could bring them up properly. Well, I ended up (long story) with two kittens as well (I'm not really a kitten person, more of a fat old wonky person :-)) - and if they are anything to go by, my sons will be delinquents. -- jennifer@...

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2001 Report Share Posted June 5, 2001 Carol, You can apparently train cats to use the toilet. I think you have to put the litter tray by the toilet and over the course of a few weeks, raise it until it reaches the height of the loo, and then take it away. Not sure if it works, and cant be bothered to try on my three dozy cats, but some people have lots of patience!

Does that > mean he will be going to 'real' school when he is 3yr8m?<< I don't think it's early. My two youngest started pre-school at 2 yr 6mth and absolutely loved it. It meant they get/got 2 yrs of pre-school before starting school. Lorraine, Mum to 10, Natasha 8, 5, ph 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 5, 2001 Report Share Posted June 5, 2001 The term 'Pre-school' obviously has different meanings, depending on where you live. Where I am, Pre-school is the year prior to starting infant school. The year previous to 'Pre-school' is known as 'Ante-pre-school' which avoids confusion! ;-) And yes, children here can have two funded years at Ante-pre /Pre-school, too. Or can have funded places at playgroups, private nursery schools and daycare type nursery schools. Lesley ----------- From: Lorraine > Pre-school at 2yr8m? That seems awfully early, in itself.
