Cor, wotta pong.

[caddyman]

I have been told that it's my turn to clean the kitty litter tonight. Oh joy; of such things are dreams made, and I didn't even want a cat (though I accept that looking after one temporarily is a slightly different matter).

Yesterday we even bought a 'scoop' to take care, as it were, of business.

I think ransacked ABBA lyrics cover it best:

Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Makes my face turn blue
Like I always do
‘Cause somewhere in the grit there’s poo!

I offer a No-Prize to the person who completes the song best.

Hey! At least he actually uses one all the time!

Nancy has 'issues' (downside of rescue cat). One of them being not using the particular tray she's chosen to use if it's been used once before. Even if that once was seconds beforehand. She then ignores all the other trays in preference to using the floor.

I've found some litters are better that hiding/absorbing the pong than others. The crystal stuff is probably the best for that, but each cat has it's own litter preferences apparently.

I was sick and tired of the pong
When I called you last night, it's so wrong
All I do is eat and sleep and scoop
Wishin' every poop was the last poop

So imagine I was glad to hear you saying
Suddenly I feel all right
And it's gonna be so different
You're offering to scoop the tray tonight

Tonight the
Pooper scooper smells are gonna blind you
Make your face turn blue
(Poo-oo-per Scoo-oo-per)
Retching, heaving too
(Poo-oo-per Scoo-oo-per)
feeling like a number two.

Should I worry about what you were doing before you bought the Deluxe Scooper?

Oh, and as you asked so nicely...

Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Makes my face turn blue
Like I always do
‘Cause somewhere in the grit there’s poo!

I was thinking of something else to do
When you told me last night to clean poo.
All it does is run and crap and mew
Sleeping every night on top of you
(Sleeping every night on top of you)
So imagine I was glad to see you scooping
(glad to see you scooping)
Suddenly it's my night
(and suddenly it's gonna be)
And it's gonna be so different
When I'm stooped over the tray tonight

Tonight the
Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Lumps like fossilised coal
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Squinting like a mole
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Feeling for number two
Tonight the
Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Makes my face turn blue
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Like I always do
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
‘Cause somewhere in the grit there’s poo!

Facing the product of his end
How can anyone be this smelly
Parts of IAMs best flushed round the bend
Still I'm thinking about you only
(still I'm thinking about you only)
There are moments when I think I’m going crazy
(think I’m going crazy)
But it’s gonna be alright
(you’ll soon be changing everything)
Everything will be so different
Cause I'll only do tonight

Tonight the
Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Lumps like fossilised coal
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Squinting like a mole
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Feeling for number two
Tonight the
Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Makes my face turn blue
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Like I always do
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
‘Cause somewhere in the grit there’s poo!

I'll just have finished at the point that he arrives
He should be lucky that he is still alive
And when he takes to the tray
And looks me in the eye
I know it's going to be a long long night

Tonight the
Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Lumps like fossilised coal
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Squinting like a mole
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Feeling for number two
Tonight the
Pooper Scooper, smells are gonna blind me
Makes my face turn blue
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
Like I always do
(Poop-p-per Scoop-p-per)
‘Cause somewhere in the grit there’s poo!

Ladies, Gentlemen, Moggies, I think we have a winner!

[caddyman.livejournal.com]

Which one?

[w00hoo.livejournal.com]

Geekette nailed the first verse, I wasn't happy with mine and think it got more in to the swing of things after the first chorus. So glue them both together and there you go :-)

Clearly, you are using the wrong brand of sand. The stuff we get eliminates the odour, and cleaning it out and pouring in fresh stuff takes less than five mins. I can not take the credit for this. Stacey always magically knows what to buy.

I can eliminate the smell of cat.



..and w00hoo's song.

You may have one already but if not there's quite a good type of litter tray which has a box around it and door and filters on the side, for the times in between cleaning it out. The last cats I lived with had one of these and it made a massive difference. There are few worse smells that cat pooh.
