I know you can give meat tenderizer or pineapple to stop dogs from eating dogs poop, but what about cats? Any remedies for that?

Cats are so finicky I doubt they would eat pineapple or anything that makes the poop taste bad. The best thing to do is put the litterbox up where the dogs cant get to it or you can do what I did. I put up a baracade around the litter box that my cat could jump over but the dogs couldnt. I used hamster playpens but I think one could be made out of other things easy enough

I agree with Chachi...eliminate the possiblity of getting to the litter box.

Ours is located in my laundry and I blocked it off with a babygate. Always felt bad for kitties...gotta potty and HURDLE to get to the potty.

I was eventually able to take the gate down....none of my dogs even goes in there in more.

I picked up an old end table at a yard sale and put the cat box on it in a corner (cat box has a wall on two sides so it's more stable). I put a non slip rubber thing under it and it works fine! Cat jumps in, dog stays out.

Right now we have a baby gate in front of the bathroom, high enough for Mojo to squeeze through, but so the pups can't... thankfully I have two larger yorks.
