Yes, this is a real photo, and I did not Photoshop it in any way. However, I have seen where my photo has been taken and used on the internet, but I can prove it is my photo, and this is my cat.
To protect his name, I will call my cat “Rugburn”, this is actually his registered name, but it’s not the name he goes by. Rugburn has a sister. She was the runt of the litter, so she’s smaller than him. The photo of Rugburn on the potty was taken when he was about 4 years old, and he’s 7 years old now. Bengals are a very difficult breed to take care of, because they are like having a 2 year old running around all the time, and they get into anything and everything that they can.
Rugburn actually taught himself how to do this, because I wouldn’t be able to begin to tell you how to potty train a cat. We noticed that he didn’t like to get in the litter box. He would actually stand on the side, and then do a balancing act on the rim of the box. I’ve seen him do this so many time with the balancing on the litter box, and I would just hope that he wouldn’t fall forward and end up with what should be in the box, being out the box, because he always faces himself outward from the litter box.
His dislike for the litter box, I believe is what forced him to try something different. He only does this every now and then, so this isn’t something that he does all the time. If he could teach himself how to flush, then we’d really be on a roll. But then again, not sure what my water bill would end up looking like if he discovered that he could flush.
Here’s Rugburn with his sister. She prefers the litter box. 🙂
And here’s Rugburn just chillin’.
And, Rugburn’s sister is just as silly as he is. She loves boxes, and she found use out of this Pepsi box.
Even though Bengals can keep you on your toes, they definitely make life interesting.

I wish my cat could be like Rugburn, but the garden is her paradise and I could never anything more she would love I only have one problem about her, she is totally addicted to chips at movie day she would always have a bowlful when were watching (including her!). I don't know if it's bad for her though but she makes the face whenever she doesn't get what she wants. LOL
If I would have a cat for a pet, I would like it to be potty trained like your Rugburn.
Your cat is so smart because he really tried to learn how to have his waste like that on top of the toilet bowl. Did any of you trained him at first on how to do it, or he really out of his hatred for the litter box learned it by himself? How come he knows, it's where we humans deposits our waste?
