If you've read It's a Cat's World... You Just Live In It, you know that I have one chapter dedicated to just kitty litter. While I know this sounds a bit obsessive, kitty litter husbandry is such an important part of cat ownership. If you don't have n+1 litter boxes (in other words, if you have 2 cats, you should have 3 litter boxes!), don't scoop daily, or if you've ever had a cat urinate inappropriately (Yuck! Why does cat urine reek so much?), then you should check out that chapter.
In this chapter entitled "Fancy Feline," you'll also find out how kitty litter tops our landfills - because of the 80 million cat owners out there (cat lovers, unite!) and inappropriate scooping technique. Did you know that some people dump out the contents of a whole litter box instead of scooping (which wastes a lot of clumping kitty litter)? Well, if you want to minimize your carbon footprint, check out treehuggingcats.com. You can even get a free coupon for a 13.2 pound bag of Purina's Yesterday's News Moisture-Locking Paper Pellets. Check it out! Now, buyer beware. I typically only use this type of litter for cats that have undergone declawing surgery, or sustained trauma or burns to their paws or feet.
