(5,914 posts)But maybe my cat is a Republican!
It certainly would explain a lot of his destructive behavior.

Had to retrain my Republican husband to change and replace the roll the "right" way.

(47,552 posts)But if I had a cat, or if my baby gave a hoot about the toilet roll, I'd reserve the right to hang it the wrong way.
It would still be the wrong way. Just for the right reason.

(6,133 posts)the correct way, with swastikas on each tissue.
This is the correct way to display, wiping ones ass on the Nazi party of the past.
And now we have the alt right.

(3,910 posts)It's a no-brainier the paper should be close to the wall which is out of the way.
Where ever I go I change it to under to mess with people. I really do.
And by the way before toilet paper people used their left hand

(24,259 posts)Overly enthusiastic adults but, especially if you have cats (or want your TP more santitary), using a decorated repurposed plastic coffee container works wonderfully IME.
We use the former in our 'guest (1/2) bathroom', where our cats are rarely allowed, and the later in our main one where the cats are allowed to hang out.

My sink is in my bedroom.
I hate it but its all i can afford.
Toilet paper sits on side of tub....

(18,252 posts)debating this issue. As for me, however it winds up (or down) as I put it on the roller is how it stays.
