I meant to say mine *does* use a covered litter box.  Sheesh!  See
what working all these extra hours does to you?  (Not to mention the
overjoyment of my cat when I am actually home...you'd think she was
glued to me or something).
On another note, after reading various cat care books and talking to other
people, I decided to get my cat an inexpensive toy -- some ping pong balls.
What a mistake (for me, not her).  She loves them -- especially in the
bathroom, at bedtime or at some ungodly hour in the morning.  I guess she
likes the noise it makes on the tiled floor.
So, there are other cats out there that like to "wake up" at the times
you would like peace and quiet the most.
