Unusual sink clog

Post by Ysabel Kid »

The kids called me up from working in the basement to complain about an usual clog in the sink in the downstairs water closet. Ever run into one of these?

Knowing this crowd, I'm afraid to ask how you all would handle this! :lol:

Stripes, our cat, was wholely unimpressed when I asked him to move!

Yep, we've had the same clog. And with the same colored cat :mrgreen:

He just loved to crash out in the sink. We just left him alone and used another sink.

I think turning on the water coupled with screaming like a little girl at the top of your lungs would clear it out for a long time.

Kid,
Cats and dogs bring so much happiness to a household that I could not imagine life otherwise.

BTW, you guys sure are clean. :D Our sinks have soap smudges on the handles. Gun rags sometimes cover the sinks and the backs of the toilet.---------Sixgun

Have someone pet/distract the cat while you hook the garden hose up to the water trap/drain pipe. Then stand back, turn on the hose, and take a video of what happens.
