How old do you need to be before you are allowed to use the lavatory unsupervised?

I managed to sneak in just now without Jacky Milburn seeing me. He practically slid as he shot in to catch the end of the performance.

He supervises both of us it's a bust life!

I think, the older you are, the more likely you are to be 'stalked'.
My cats never follow my younger grand daughters into the loo, but occasionally, one may follow one of my daughters.

Like you, Sharron, 'private' time is not my own!

Dear Ladies

Hello

My toilet function are private! :-D

Although I called out to a group of my female friends "I need toilet paper".
I was deluged by toilet rolls!

Those were the days when people were not fighting for them! :-S

Take gentle care
Love Elizabeth, EOS

Elizabeth - I wish mine were private!
If I manage to get in on my own, unless I lock the door, George opens it :-S

Mog supervises me too whenever I go. If I think I’ve managed to get in privately Mog usually appears from under the bath. If Mog can’t supervise for some reason Meg makes sure she supervises instead.

Possibly they are wondering as to how you can be so unhygienic as not to cover up with soil after the deed.

Cat scan comes to mind :-0

Hmm not sure, Allan.
On the odd occasion I have flushed without putting the lid down, they're fascinated, watching the water.
George has realised what the bathroom's for, and, at least once, has decided the shower curtain is the ideal place to pee up! :-0

Mr Tibbs waits for me outside the bedroom door and no way can I get into the bathroom without him

So there’s me on the loo and him rolling at my feet and then getting up and rubbing himself around my legs then down rolling again

He likes to check the water flush too and stands on his hind legs to check it’s all doing what it should

He then walks down the stairs in front of the foot rest on the chair lift

I have to check he doesn’t stop to give the rail a neck rub as I come down otherwise the chair lift does an emergency stop

Can always tell too,apart from the sniff, that he has used his litter tray as the hall runner will be bunched up where he has done a scoot up the hall after dong what he needed too
