Abstract
A potty (10) includes a sidewall (12), basin (14) and a top surface (15) including a seating surface (18). The potty (10) is arranged such that it can be stacked with a similar potty such that a part of one is received within the other. This results in the combined height of the stacked potties being less than twice the height of an individual potty. The potty (10) has a duct (20) that enables liquid to be poured from the basin (14) out of the potty substantially without coming into contact with the seating surface (18).

- at least some of the duct is provided along or across at least some of the basin sidewall,
- the duct is arranged such that it crosses the seating surface,
- the potty includes a drain aperture formed through a surface thereof, the duct extending to the drain aperture such that liquid may flow from an area of the basin to the drain aperture via the duct,
- the potty includes a backrest having a support surface and the drain aperture is formed through the support surface of the backrest, and
