Everyone here will have a different favourite litter. I hate clumping because it is expensive and with the clumps it gets used up faster.

I like Maxx Cat in the white bag - it has a good antibacterial deodorant in it. You can flush the poop - just the poop - down the toilet if you want. however, I use smaller plastic bags (like from stores), put the cleanings from every day or two in the bag, tie the top in a knot, and put it in with my regular size garbage bags (regular grocery size - I live in a condo so have to get rid of my garbage every few days. No garbage chute.)

Hope those links get you started.

Food? What has Dann been feeding him?

I agree with keeping him in the bathroom for a while. Once the move is over, he can come out and start exploring, and he will know where his safe place is.

Great you are doing this!
