TBT: Loki has a peeing issue. Sometimes, he thinks the bed is the perfect place. He never poops there, just pees.
I resorted to a plastic tarp covered with an old sheet (so I could see a wet spot easily but not have to launder everything below the tarp). And I found a long 4' wide cardboard tube in the garage that allowed me to roll and unroll both up and down easily. Worked fine, but it went I couldn't leave the bedroom door open at night (the tarp was too annoying to sleep under).
So I bought a waterproof sheet to put on the top at night. It didn't say it was "fitted" and since I have a waterbed (king size), "fitted" doesn't work. So I returned it.
Last week, I found a flat waterproof sheet. I was annoyed it only came in charcoal gray, which doesn't fit the burgundy walls and wood furniture. So I covered it with the old red sheet again. It doesn't look "too bad" and it isn't like I have other people inspecting my bedroom, so "who cares".
But it is light enough to sleep under and I can let The Mews into the room again. Now we just need to find out if Loki decides to stop peeing on the bed.
As part of a possible solution, I set up a litter box in the bedroom shower stall (which I don't actually use myself. It gets used, and maybe that would have been a solution by itself. But 2 solutions are better than one.
And, for all I know, Loki simply has decided to stop peeing on the bed on his own. Still, some insurance is good! So I am thankful to have found a king-size flat waterproof sheet.
I would post a picture, but Amazon seems to prevent copying images.
