1- cleaning cat litter 2-3 times a day would be abnormal except you do
have quite a few and if you are forcing them all to use just 1-2 pans,
then that's your fault for creating the situation.

2- Many people live in apartments. They dont have basements (even
houses where he and I live rarely do due to the water table issues).
That means the pan has to be in the house someplace. In my house, it's
in the bathroom and gets scooped once a day with a once a week clean
out but then I have only 1 cat.

3- If your cooking smells so bad that a tuna melt 'reeks' then you
might want to revise your cooking. Short of storing your clothing in
the kitchen, it will not impact them unless you traditionally use
rotted produce and burn your meals.

4- Gary lives in a pretty upscale area. Houses near him run
350,000-400,000$ and this isn't the super pricy SoCal area or DC where
you multiply by 4. Apartments in his area are decent, not remotely
tenements. He's also almost walking distance to a WHOLE LOT better
shopping than you have including a Trader Joes, a Whole Foods, and 3
other large chains (seems to like the Krogers best which is still
upscale of your WalMart).
