Here's our new guy Dylan. I want to name him "Mogwai" after the famous gremlin, but my wife doesn't like it.

Speaking of litter, what are you guys using? I used the blue/yellow Tidy Cat for years, but recently tried the new Arm and Hammer "clump and seal" stuff. It smells pretty good, and the clumping action is much better for when they decide to pee on the walls of the litter box but in the last few weeks someone (I suspect Cloud) has started peeing on things they shouldn't. I'm wondering if they don't like the smell of the new litter.

I also use whatever is cheapest at Walmart. My cats don't care what type of kitty litter they **** in. One also like pushing litter out of the box right on to the floor in front of it and shitting there.

My cats are free-range and think that my raised beds are giant litter boxes.

I use a 50/50 mix of world's best and swheat scoop. it clumps awesome and doesn't smell like kitty peepee.

I have heard AMAZING things about using straight chicken feed. it's apparently cheaper than the cheap **** brainy uses. if you can find it. farm supply.

at what point does a step-ladder turn into a full-fledged ladder? 7-8'?

No idea. I have never heard a ladder with legs and steps as opposed to rungs be referred to as anything different. The one in question is 6' folded.

Ive used the Arm and Hammer Clump and Seal... that stuff is the ****... but i only buy it when it is on sale. Too expensive for my taste. Tidy Cats has never done me Wrong. But the Arm and Hammer is amazing... Smells great, Clumps strong as hell, and you NEVER smell Cat Pee.

Anyone Here use a Litter Genie??? I love mine... Best pusspuss purchase EVER... lol

Oh, i also use the Arm and Hammer Litter spray, for when the litter gets a little old, but is still good. That stuff smells like straight Candy. haha Makes the whole room smell good, and it can be used on ANY litter

When it stops having broad, flat steps. E.g., rung-ladder, rope-ladder, etc.

I had to take the morning off work to take my other cat (the one who isn't sick with lymphoma sigh) to the vet. she was constipated with a golf ball sized turd that the doc said was full of hair.

hello daily laxative/fiber for kitty!


what is it with my cats and POOP?
