ABC Wednesday: Letter T. for toilet

Gattina and a group of cat lovers have a meme on Cat stories. When I saw her header photo of the cute cat on the toilet, I LOL to myself and remembered my mum and our house cats.

That photo showing the hole on the floor found in the East. It is a toilet. Most of the older houses would have this. I was lucky in some of the houses I lived in, we had both kinds. Those of you who have been to the East have encountered this hole on the floor of the toilet.

My older friends often joked that it was impossible to squat and then get up again. Even among the youngsters, they avoid using this hole. I was at Mulu caves when I was with a group of British students who were going to climb the pinnacles. They didn't want to use the hole, and would rather wait for the sole sitting toilet. My born in New Zealand girls found themselves in the same predicament

The hole was my mum's cat toilet training success story. The cats we had didn't need a litterbox. When they were kitten, she got them to poo in the hole. Mum was so clever. Of course, this method won't work with the sitting toilet especially if you put the lid down.
