Depends on the cat. If they're simply going with tapping the roll to spin it, that may work for a bit. I've found that rolls accessible to a cat tend to morph into big balls of clawed unusable pulp.
Comment on I will not be taking questions.

Unless you have a cat that likes to play with them… Then the other direction.

When I was a young kid, I had a cat that was front-declawed (this was before it was well known that it’s an abusive practice - my folks didn’t know better at the time). Because he couldn’t shred the paper with his claws, he showed his spite by chewing up the roll so it looked like he’d clawed it.

When my bois were kittens, they would play with it either way. You’re totally correct.

Why not just shut the door so the cat doesn’t get in there? The toilet paper being hung correctly is more important than the cat for me.

One of my cats knows how to open doors like a fucking velociraptor. We’ve baby locked several of our doors but some things like the bathroom I don’t like fucking around with extra steps when trying to get into at 3am

Oh hey, my fear. Do you have door knobs, or uh - the flat handled kind that swing down or up? I just realized I don’t know what those lever like door handles are called.
I can hear one of my cats pawing at the door knob at night, he’d be getting in places he shouldn’t if we had those flat kind.

Bank vault doors. With digital keypad entry systems. They’re really smart cats.

The flat/lever kind, can get them open first try from either side of a door it’s impressive. He’s way too smart for his own good and I suspect he could work a round style one if it had enough texture on it. The menace certainly gets into everything else in the house

Because I don’t like the smell of cat shit anywhere outside the bathroom

Then teach them not to play with the TP roll.

Ah yes! “Just teach” the cat. Easy

If you live in a humid, much poo carries on.
