  "It has an excercise room."
  It has to have an excercise room, otherwise you couldn't not use it.

  Absolutely. He likes to be prepared but sadly cannot self analyze himself enough to be able to know that they are futile.

  The trick would be to make it wonderful enough to attract, but not so wonderful that she wants it during the divorce proceedings years later.

Well, when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us.

People's cat litter boxes smell? Use the correct litter box sand, please.

What kind of sand would that be? Quicksand?

Do NOT remove the box. Taking a shower and watching a cat torn between staying in a box it just crapped in and leaving through a torrent of water has it's positive moments!

When I had a cat (May he rest in peace), the litter box was in the bathroom, because it was near the toilet for disposing lumps 'o crap. It was a really bonding experience to go to the bathromm, the cat following behind you and taking a huge dump together. Needless to say, my logs always beat his, thus he was a moody cat...

How about not sharing your house with a member of another species?
That has occurred to them, but they need somebody to work the can opener.
