Food: We never moved the food and water. We just constantly corrected DD and told her that was for the kitty cats and she eventually left it alone.
Litter: This may seem extreme, but it has worked so well for us that I can't imagine it any other way now.
We took one of the small storage spaces under the eaves of the upstairs, the kind that has a wooden panel that you pop in and out to access....and we lined it with vinyl flooring and cut a little cat sized hole in the wooden panel. They have their own space now, DD cant get in there and it is easy enough to pop the panel out, reach in, drag the boxes forward, scoop and clean, fill and shove them back in. THEY LOVE IT. And we love that the litter boxes aren't in our living space.
