[net.pets] Potted plants for litter boxes

I recently solved the potted-plants-for-convenient-litter-box problem.
I purchased some decorative stone (about 3/4 inch pieces) from my local
garden center (1 pail cost me $1). Then I remove enough soil from each
plant's pot surface to allow a solid layer of stone. My kitten soon 
lost all interest in digging in the rocks ( I occassionally find 1 or
2 pieces on the floor, but it beats entire plants and their soil).Best
of all, the plants look really nice ( I used clay-colored stones ) and
my friends no longer have to ask me about aluminum foil or screening on
my plants!
