My cat shat in the Lego box

[StuntNun]

Any tips on how to clean Lego? There are loads of tiny pieces that will go down the plug hole if I try and wash it in the bath. DH says he used a sieve last time he had to wash Lego but there's way too much for that.

Dishwasher in a Colander.

I had a cat piss in a Lego box once.

It didn’t poo on all ten cubic feet though?

I can see that diarreah would be a problem but if it's actual poo surely it would be a fairly contained area ?

More to the point ,why do cats do this ? My elderly female one has taken to pissing ( I would much ptefer poo) on stray Ikea blue bags with clothes destined for charity shop ,a box of Xmas decs,the front room carpet and luggage packed for early depature .
I get that she doesn't like upheaval .But is this common behaviour ?

Wait - how long was the cat shut in the garage for exactly ?

10 to 15 washing machine loads? How much shit is there??

How much does your cat shite?!

I'd just move. Maybe don't let the cat know where.

Good luck OP.

They did it as a punishment for getting trapped in the garage! My cat got locked in ours overnight and climbed in the tumble drier to stay warm and shit in it🤢
DH didnt realise and put a load of wet washing in and turned it on, I went in when it had finished and was met by the most horrendous smell 🤮🤢 took 3 big bath towels drenched in comfort to get rid of the smell and plenty of antibac spray to sort it! Thank the lord that my tumble drier wasnt the kind that has holes all across the drum 😂

The poo was buried at the bottom of the Lego box but by the time we realised it was there the Lego had been mixed up and it wasn't easy to tell where the poo finished.

yes, remove the solids as best as you can then zipped pillow case and into the washer with a little washing up liquid.

lego purists might at this, but no way am I washing a trillion pieces by hand.

Could you sterilise it with Milton

have done the pillowcase thing when dc puked into the box

From another thread I'm on, just stick it in the dishwasher 😮

Gloves for the worst picking and throwing.

Then shower the rest in bath - probably with a spray —or 10– of bathroom cleaner with bleach.

Cold water Milton sterilise the whole amount in the bath.

Then take out in batches and dry on kitchen roll.

What about washing it through in the bath then leaving it to soak in fresh bath water with a load of Milton steriliser tablets in?

How big was the box!!

Chuck it all in the bath with Milton and take it out before pulling the plug

My cat’s poo doesn’t offend me at all and I would pick through it and clean no problem. I understand that is not very helpful and would probably sound gross to anyone not so madly in love with their felines.
