Re: Where does everyone express their incontinent animals?

I always took my cat outside to express him...never thought of the sink. It would have been way warmer in the winter & more convient in the rain, ect. Sometimes, I am not the brightest light. 13 yrs of going out in all conditions 3-4 times a day...duh, why not use the sink??
