ROFLMAO! Oh, I have soooo been there, done that with my kitties. My 25-pound Maine Coon, in particular, will NOT lower himself to lick anything off his paws/body. He much prefers to track it around and get rid of it that way.

I literally groaned, "Oh no!" when you said you threw the sticky cat in the room with the litterbox. I was just SURE your next sentence was going to say something about having a cat that looked a lot like a caramel apple rolled in nuts. You know, petromalt-covered cat rolled in cat litter. Mmmm, mmmm, good!
