What is your litter stockpile amount?

[Zippy]

20 lbs or so of Freshstep cat litter last me a month or so.I alwas have a little extra on hand but not much.

Being proudly owned by my 11 furbabies, and supplying them with 5 litter boxes, I usually go thru 80 to 100lbs of liter (Tidy Cat) a week, keeping one 35lb bag on hand. I buy mine at Publix because it is actually cheaper than at Pet Smart and I spend a lot at Pet Smart every week. In addition to my 11 at home, I have three stray/feral colonies that I feed daily. Reading this thread today has really brightened my day. Ahh, the things we do for our babies.

Litter users - I was thinking of switching Cassie from clay to clumping litter -- right now we use Tidy Cats with either the blue or red stripe on the label and I'm not unhappy, but I'd like to change the entire box less often. I get the 10-pound bag of Tidy Cats at the supermarket because the monster bag (although a better bargain) is heavy! The shelter used clay litter so we've stuck with that all these years - is it too late to switch to clumping litter?

No hubby, just me ... every now and again I borrow my upstairs neighbor's wheeled shopping basket, thank goodness for that and a building with an elevator because my parking space is a long walk from the door with a big bag of cat box filler. When the monster size is on sale, and my neighbor is home to lend me his shopping basket, that's a wonderful combination of events.

I usually by 2- 40# at a time and that lasts me a month. Our PetSmart is in Baton Rouge so I don't go but once a month... thank God we don't have one closer! (I'd be there every day and have to get a second job!)

Next Question is... How much toilet paper do you have in your house for the humans? (bet everyone has more cat litter than T paper like I do!)

I have enjoyed reading this thread and I know what Jen and Lizzie and everyone else that has more than a few cats feels like when they go to buy litter. I have always used Tidy cat clay and use to get the 30 lb bags at Walmart because that was the cheapest price but their prices went up and I started getting forty lb bags at Petsmart. The problem with that thought is my bad bache and bursititis and me trying to carry mulitple bags inside. It was too hard on my back so I started getting 20lb bags at Petsmart for 2.99. I have to get at least 6 bags a week for my gang. I go through at least 80 lbs of litter a week and sometimes more if the diabetics sugar is high. I would love to be able to buy ahead but with having to get so much I barely can get what I can for that week. Eventually I would like to get ahead but right now it is jsut impossible. I also hear the comments"My God, how many cats do you have?" etc

This thread is great. It just goes to show how you all care so much for your babies. I don't stock up as I don't need to, only having the two. I use a generic clumping litter and they get along fine with it. In fact any litter that I get if I get something that's cut down or on offer they never turn their nose up at. I'm very lucky I don't have litter problems with them.

Reading this thread makes me realise how great everybody on this forum really is!!
