Today, I brought home a new small glass necklace and put it somewhere I figured that the cats couldn't reach. I was wrong. Now I will be looking through kitty litter to find something smaller than a dime. Talk about needle in a haystack. FML

Hello everyone, OP here :). Just like to verify a few things. The necklace was not a beaded thing, it had a glass charm about the size of the eraser on a pencil, and that was the part my cat got. Thankfully he didn't get the chain, that would be so painful! I will take him to the vet soon to make sure it went through him safely. It actually was in a jewelry box, but it was upright and had handles that his paws could slip through-which I was very much not aware of xD. There were no beads or sharp ends though, and since it is so small, I think the little guy will be okay. Clever little bastard though.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Your first mistake was thinking there existed a place your cat can't reach. In fact, it probably saw it as a challenge.

So basically your cat thought "Even though I have this whole house full of things I can play with, I'm going to eat her new necklace and watch her sift through my kitty litter while feeling smug and giving her a look that says i did this to you just because I can". I knew cats were evil incarnate.

Cats are such assholes sometimes.

More like a needle in a shitstack

There is nowhere that cats can't reach.

Not quite a needle in a haystack - unless your cats shit cannon balls. Good chance you'll see what you're looking for without having to dig. And don't be so sure they ate it - it may be just hidden somewhere.

Check everywhere else thoroughly first. Worst thing is to realize they just moved it after doing all that.

Maybe you should invest in a jewelry box of some sort to put these things into when you're not wearing them. Or if it was in you bedroom or something just start shutting that door

YDI, OP. You should had put it inside a drawer or in a box the cats couldn't have opened. You should know by now that cats can reach even the highest places by climbing and jumping. Also, I can't imagine that glass couldn't be dangerous for them if they ate it...

Cats reach everything except for those things protected by a properly closed door.

Use a pasta strainer or something to let the litter pass through but not the necklace

Why not use an actual litter scoop?? She has to have one, unless she only cleans the box by putting new litter down.

Never underestimate your cats' abilities.
