Schedule
Turing’s Human Schedule
Everyday
- Water bowl always full (replace with completely fresh water as needed, Turing is a little picky)
- Dry food bowl always full
- Wet food 2-3x/day
- 1/2 can in the morning and/or afternoon
- 1/2 can before bedtime (always at night, he eats the most at night)
- A cuddle and squish
Once midway through week
- Use doggie poop bag to pick up poops in liter box
End of week
Replace litter box liner:
- Unclip 4 clips on the litter box and remove lid
- Throw away the liter box liner (plastic bag) with contents
- Replace with new liter box liner
- Fill liner with 1/4 of the litter in the Pretty Litter bag
- Re-clip litter box lid
- MAKE SURE THE LOWER SIDE OF THE BASE IS THE SIDE WITH THE FLAP, otherwise he won’t be able to open the litter box flap.
- Also make sure the litter box is up against the wall, otherwise he will just push the box around and pee/poop somewhere else if he can’t get in)
Caution!
- Walking on the stove! After cooking, the stove will still be hot and Mr. Turing may not realize 🥺 he often jumps up and walks right across.
- The hot weather! If its going to be hotter than 85 degrees Fahrenheit during the day, please put AC on in the guest room and close the door so Turing stays in the cool.
- Turing likes to try to escape and run outside. If this becomes too hard to stop him from doing, feel free to restrict him from parts of the house.
- I’ve been trying to train him with the water gun when he tries to run near the back door.
- Let me know if I should order a cat gate or something.
- Feel free to spray him with the water gun and train him this way too, but please avoid spraying the water in his ears and eyes because cats can get nasty infections there!
- New tenants! Please make sure new housemates are VERY AWARE of how slick Turing is at escaping. Maybe start to open the door to show them how he runs towards it. I would be heartbroken if anything happens to him 🥺 (again, if we need to restrict Turing to a certain part of the house, lets do it)
- String! Cats will chew and swallow string. Please don’t leave string around unless you are actively playing with him with it.
In case of an accident or if Turing seems off
I like to play it safe with this stuff! If something seems off, it’s worth checking out :)
