Dear Oz,

I greatly appreciate your help in cleaning out your litter box every morning.  It is a rare and conscientious cat who does not leave the odious task entirely up to his human colleagues.  One point of procedure, however: we are scooping the clumps out of the box, and not back in.  I only mention this because we so often seem at cross-purposes when we are working at this together - me trying desperately to remove waste with the scoop, while you dilligently scatter the pieces into the far corners of the box.  I'm sure it is just a difference in style.  At any rate, I'm confident that if we continue to work together it will all come out fine.  Gratefully, - Suez.  P.S. Hasn't the gate helped terrifically in ensuring that George does not also help with the task?  His method of waste-removal does seem a bit crude.  Although, I suppose it could be considered a bit like recycling.  Still...
