Default Need kitchen trash can recs

that was going to be my next question, I have a very smrt cat, who has
figured out how to open the screen portion of two differently configured
sliding glass doors, he has also figured out how to open every
cabinet/drawer known to man and even a few regular door knobs... the week
before dh left for hospital he told me chester was watching intently every
time i raised the bedroom windows, do you think such a can is safe from such
a cat? Lee
