World's Best Cat Litter....yuck...

[shais_mom]

Leslie, Kylie does the same thing!!!
She rarely covers her poo! Last night I was going nuts with that "smell" thinking it was one of the girls farting but I scooped the box and it helped tremendously!
whew!!
I think Kylie is getting a new cat box for Christmas.
I also installed a "pet door" My dad built me a closet last winter and I had them cut out an arc so that I could put the litter box in my closet. It works great!! Except for if she gets stinky and I have to febreze my clothes just in case!!!

He digs a hole and then drops the turds, and then walks out .

Yep, my kitty is a "stealth bomber" too - he's really litterbox impaired! He digs and digs and digs, and then doesn't turn around and put his butt over the hole - just stays exactly where he was, facing the hole, and drops 'em right next to the edge of the box (inside it) . Then he turns around, sniffs, and does some really lame swipes next to the turds. I had to go to a farm supply store and get a big feeding trough-type tub, so he'd have room to drop 'em wherever they land . His box is downstairs in the utility (laundry) room, so we don't have any stink problems upstairs, but once in a while I'll go in there and PHEW! Fresh ones! I would LOVE to modify a closet in the house or something, but my husband has a fit if I want to change anything in this house. IF we ever get a next house, it's all about me and my cat, baby - the cat will probably have it's own room

Oh yeah, we were using Scoop Away, but then I changed to Tidy Cat multi-cat, because the Scoop Away was too dusty. So far I really like the Tidy Cat - good hard clumps and nowhere near as much dust as the Scoop Away. I do have a hard time managing the gargantuan 40 lb. plastic tubs though - next house will have a delivery chute to the basement, so I can just pour the litter directly from the garage into the giant litter holding tank in the house Maybe somebody should start a home-litter-delivery service!

Freckles uses World's best and seems to like it. Recently the litter seemed smellier than usual, before and after use. I recalled reading somewhere (probably a litter box maker) that litter boxes should be replaced yearly. Freckles box was about 5 -6 years old, so I bought a new one. That made the difference and it's back to it's normal good smell.

We have new litterboxes, so it isn't the box. And acutally, the cats haven't been covering up their poop...wierd. I guess they may not like it either.

I'll be changing it tonight to something else. I'll try that one for multi-cat houses....Tidy Cat, right?

My concern is the dust...

We use Tidy Cat Multi-Cat Scoopable. I have duties on cleaning the boxes and I don't notice any dust. Wearing contacts you would think I would notice, but I don't.

Great! We'll try that one. Thank you!!

I have six cats, four boxes, all in the basement, with a cat door leading downstairs. I have 'some' odor issues, but it seems to be related to switching out the nasties, and refilling the box. I use what ever is on sale, always scoopable. The dust doesn't seem to be too much of an issue, though years ago, I thought it was more dusty...

I'd almost be willing to pay someone to come scoop and change my litter boxes!!! I have 12 cats using boxes ... no more explanation needed!!!!

[shais_mom]

*SIGH* I hope this works
After much ado with my NEW digi camera and alot of help from zippycat - this is Kylie's kitty door.
My dad just put the cover on it.


I hope, I hope.
Paws and fingers crossed.

I was using this Pete Moss cat litter and it worked realllllly well, but it was so messy! Another one that works really good are the crystals

That would be a long commute for me.

How big are your boxes? if you have the room, you could make ones larger to cut down on numbers of boxes, or buy sand boxes?
