      People always say that. Like it was in every cat’s nature to unroll the toilet paper when they see it. And it’s the only argument they have. I have never seen a cat do this and I have a lot of friends with cats.

        The behavior in question is a viral meme just like the post. Some kitties/kiddies learn to entertain themselves unspooling the roll, some never do. In a household with the potential for some bored gremlin learning this behavior it can be safer to just not present the opportunity, even if the behavior hasn’t been seen before.

        My husband and I had a cat for nearly a decade and she never so much as looked at the TP roll. Our current gremlin has sprinted at top speed into the bathroom because he heard me open the cabinet where we started hiding the TP when he wouldn’t leave it alone. He actually tried to grab it out of my hands, and I had to play tug of war with him! I’ve never encountered any other cat as hellbent on destroying TP, but he lives for it. Shreds it like he’s plucking a bird.

        Consider yourself lucky. I still do it the normal way, but cats absolutely will unroll a toilet roll if it catches their attention.

          It entirely depends on the cat. Some cats will, others couldn’t care less.

        I’ve had 2/5 cats I’ve had donut, so the roll always goes down the back. Kept my kid from unrolling it for about a week lol

    Right is the way the inventor intended it to be reloaded + it’s easier to access.

    Left is the way parents and pet owners need to reload it + it’s harder to unroll by accident (or by purpose) good number of times.

    Out of frame on the toilet basin/counter is the way people who don’t have a tp holder or don’t care to refill it put it.

    The bidet is what we use personally, way better for the butt health and probably better for the environment lol

    Nah, see, that’s baby shit. You still have toilet paper in the end.

    There are two types of people in this world:

    • Those who have a bidet.
    • And the bidet-less.

        The blower built into the bidet

        The better question is what are you checking to make sure it’s all clean with

          My bidet is powerful enough that it gives you a mild enema if you get it just right. I don’t need to check.

          Idk, I can get behind (more like over) a bidet, but a butt blower seems unsanitary and stinky.

        Some people let it dry naturally from rubbing the underwear. Though could probably be hard if you have hairy ass or in a cold climate.

        Yes, same, only some cats enjoy that sort of things, & even then they could understand it’s causing problems (they might just stop bcs they see you unhappy about it).

    Those that throw out the roll when they know they will run out early on the next use, and those that keep using it until the end and replace the roll to add more mid wipe.

          Simple fix; just don’t have animals or children in the house. If you can’t trust someone with that top roll, just artificially classify them into one of those groups and disallow them from your house.

          All for the sake of saving a couple squares of TP every so often!

          Then set it on the tank. That’s a lot of waste in a year {pun not intended).

            My kids and animals already waste more than that. And the tank is just as accessible to the animals.

            It’s also what, 6-10 squares each time? Lol that’s nothing.

            Kids will still drop it and why would the tank be better for animals?

            And how much paper are you leaving on the rolls in this scenario? It’s less than 10 squares.

      It would have never occurred to me that people out there aren’t using every last bit… so thanks.

      P.S. Another possible solution to the kids/animals problem is a door, which bathrooms usually have
