If you’re getting a new litter box and have access to a Cricut - then you, too can have a ribbon-cutting ceremony for your brand new Performing Arts Center
Have you tried using wood pellets instead of clay litter? Total game changer…
FWIW corn litter is also a decent option IMO. I imagine it’s kind of between the better-absorbing clay and the more natural wood chips
Interesting idea.
There’s wood pellets in there now :) Big fan of wood pellets since 2020!
Do you have a good solution for the smell? I recently switched to wood pellets and I swear I can’t enter the room if my cat has recently used the box.
If it’s #2, I tend to scoop (with a plastic dog bag, I don’t use one of those ) pretty much right away, tie it off & put it in the trash. I’m with @iamericandre@lemmy.world, changing to wood cut down on smell quite a bit. I change it out once a week now.
Yeah it’s #2 I have the problem with. If I’m not there when it happens the smell diffuses out into the house and lingers even once the source is disposed of. I think half the problem is my cats make no attempt to bury it with the pellets where before with the litter they would entirely cover it. I’m surprised to hear people had problems with smell with clay litter, never noticed it myself. It was the dust that drove me to switch (plus cost and environmental stuff, but if I’m being honest the dust is what finally got me to research alternatives)
Hmm I find that the wood pellets smell a lot less than traditional grey litter
For #2 I scoop right away… I keep a 5 gallon bucket with tight fitting lid with a trash bag inside for all waste.
