[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 551065, member: 1233"] Star, you crack me UP! I ran some errands with husband and when we came home I had J put away some groceries and told thank you to clean the litterbox. Neither argues, which I was thankful for and praised them for. I did ask them what they thought would be on the broom and dustpan after the litterbox was cleaned. I pointed out that the 'dirt' would have a significant amt of cat feces. I then calmly told them that I didn't think they wanted that broom to be run across their plate before they ate the food on it. So why would it be on top of dishes or food containers or int he kitchen? (no answer, of course - I didn't think I would get one.) Then I made sure husband and the kids would not be eating dinner for a while. i told them that unless they were willing to lick the cat then they had best remember this lesson. husband wa SOOOO grossed out by that, lol! It wasn't aimed at him, and I explained this to him. He understands that to make a lasting impression I often have to use some graphic imagery, so to speak. [/QUOTE]
