Re: which litter?


Worlds Best, made from corn and totally flushable. Very expensive to buy initially but it lasts for ages. Very little tracking, no dust, pee forms little solid pee-patties, which you scoop and flush, leaving the rest untouched and unstinky

Yes.
There's always the alternative of teaching your cats to use the toilet - but I don't think that would suit your household Matron.

same here!

first one I bought was a sainsburys one, he liked that, then I thought id better but the 'good' ones and he turned his nose up!! didn't like it!

I always get my shopping from tesco, I really couldn't see the point of spending more for my cat to poop in!!

So I got tesco value & then tesco premium as the value one isn't online anymore, its like £1.80 i think and Taylor Loves it!! he gets so excited when i do his litter box as he loves to dig!!

really cant see the difference between that & more expensive brands to be honest!

(i have taken pics of him yesterday excited about his litter! ill put on up in a min)


Heres Tay getting all excited, over his litter!! i have to shut the lid with him still in it so he can dig haha!

Re: which litter?


I think it comes down to a balance between what the cats prefer if the favorite is one we can live with, price-wise, odor-wise and tracking-wise.

I was given wood pellets by the breeder when I got koko. The smell put me right off as it lingered around the house.

Re: which litter?


I tried the wood pellets once, and the two I had then absolutely hated it! Misty, who was the most ladylike neat cat, actually defecated outside of the box....needless to say, I threw it out.
