No!!!

I "inherited" my first pair of cats - still kittens as my brother had to go overseas and I only live in an efficiency in the city.  The first few months were a little brutal...I used to have to put them in the walk through closet/bathroom at night. But, by the time he came back - I had been converted.  I did make him pay for everything for the cats initially.

But, try it out.  If you already have a dog - you might be surprised how low maintenance a cat can be.   Make your sister buy you one of the good automatic little boxes - iRobot - I can never bring myself to spring for one.  [/quote]

Wow, those are pricey, do they work well?

I have a $400 dog hair dryer for my double-coated dog, so not criticizing!

Some do, some don't. From what I have seen the litter robot is one of the better designs. The scoop free is not quite as nice, but a lot of people still use them.  The cat genie seems as if it would be a good idea, but, there were some issues when I looked at them a few years back. Not sure if those have been corrected or not.  The biggest issue with any of them, though, is convincing the cat that it is a good idea, and on that front, you might as well get the toilet training kit and teach it to use the human toilet. You'll need to flush it of course, because teaching a cat to flush is a terrible idea … [/quote]
