A cat

An animal shelter in the US is offering to name a cat litter box after your ex, reported UPI. In a unique fundraiser as a lead-up to Valentine’s Day, the Animal Friends Humane Society in Ohio said the vengeful gesture costs just $5. “Don’t spend this Valentine’s Day down in the dumps,” it said. “For a $5 donation we will write your ex’s name in a litter box and give it to the cats, to let them do what they do best!”
