sorry jess and clock,
@ j, if I lived near you I would come clean out the litter box for you. I just got off 1 month wheelchair and 2 1/2 mos crutches, hip fracture, collar, dvt, but doing ok now, and now that I couldn't do anything for so long, I don't mind cleaning out the cat box
Somebody lent me a kindle to read, since I couldn't hold the book with two hands, that helped a lot.
