    The cat boxes. Six boxes and seven cats. I don't know what I'd do without clumping litter!

    And grooming the dog is way up there, too. He's a Pekingese, very furry, hates to be brushed and WILL bite if he gets annoyed enough. And since he has virtually no snout, I can't muzzle him. :grumble:

    OMG, I don't know how many times I have said that in my life! I think throw away pans would be the best invention ever!

    Cleaning the bathroom. I would rather vacuum (one of my least favorites) and mop (another least favorite) and do three loads of laundry, dust, clean the kitchen, clean the inside of the fridge, and scrub the grease off of the stove than clean the bathroom. :/

    Wow - this is the second thread today where I have definitely been in the minority. I love doing laundry and dishes aren't so bad either. I actually don't do much cleaning - my hubby takes care of that. I know I am lucky... :love: BUT his work week, including commute is about 42 hours/wk, while mine is about 55 on a good week.....often it is 60+. :sad: I do the laundry and pay the bills every week, plus pitch in with other stuff.:smile:

    That's tough but I would say catbox duty! Love my cats, I don't love the box!

    I totally agree... if my cat ever dies, I will NEVER get one again - no matter how cute it is!!!

    I think she's going to live forever though :ohwell:

    I also don't mind doing laundry :smile:

    I hate doing the dishes at my house!!! People don't clean their plates and love to let it stack up to the brim of the sink... so I feel obligated to clean the area where I make my food... haha

    ALSO... folding clothes...

    I enjoy most housework .. especially the feel and smell of clothes just out of the dryer.. I love cutting the grass. I am very lucky that my husband is a HUGE help. We share almost everything.. there is no "his" job or "my" job.

    Yeah, laundry for me, too. I hate the whole process, though, not just the folding/putting away (though I hate that part plenty).

    Ugh...chores! I hate sweeping/vacuuming (we have all hardwood/tile so it's easy to see which is good in a way - carpet creeps me out sometimes) so I bought us a Roomba. It's great and all but will NOT suck up dog hair...it just swirls it around and makes little tumbleweeds (which are, granted, easy to pick up).

    I kind of find dishwashing therapeutic, though (probably even moreso if we had a freaking dishwasher!)...

    For me, it's folding and putting away laundry. I despise doing it. Absolutely DESPISE.

    This is me to a 'T'.

    I will do dishes, load the dishwasher, clean floors, take out the trash...I HATE folding clothes and putting them away...
