It all started with me changing an old litter box to a new automatic litter box.</p>
<p>As I was pouring the litter into the new litter box, I realized I didn&#8217;t have enough. So I dug into the old litter box for extra litter. While I was cleaning out the old litter box in the laundry room, cat decided to pee into the new box that was sitting in the living room. She doesn&#8217;t waste any time!</p>
<p>Then I started hearing exciting laughing from my 2-year old. Something was making her very happy. As I picked into the living room<span id="more-938"></span> to see what she was up to, I found her throwing wet litter into the animals. Pieces of litter ended up all over the carpet and the tiled hallway.</p>
<p>I was madder than mad! While I was screaming about what a bad girl she&#8217;s been, I dragged her into the bathroom to wash her hands. There I realized that her hair was full of litter to. So she got a bath. As we came out, I threw her into the playpen, so I could finish what I started.</p>
<p>I ended up vacuuming the living room along with the tiled hallway. On top of it, I washed the floors, since the litter was wet and stuck to it. Then I had to get the dog outside and brush a bunch of litter off her fur.</p>
<p>When I got back to the playpen, baby innocently fell asleep. Awww, this innocent little face gave me all this work in as little as two minutes! That&#8217;s terrible twos for you! And we thought that our little angel will be better than the rest of the &#8220;other terrible kids&#8221; out there. Ha, I guess you live you learn!</p>
