A question on this issue: I was watching PC (outside cat who decided there was a cute little grey cat and good food here). Has anyone used or considered using sand for litter? Cheap, disposable???
If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

The litter needs to the poured from one box to another then the papers pulled and replaced. They absorb a lot of urine and help with odor. I've done this a few times for cats who didn't want me in their space to clean the boxes. It has been a while so you might experiment with it. If you keep an eye one Kroger's they put A and H on sale 2 for 1 every 3-4 months. Meijer's puts the silica on sale big time too. I get rain checks and stock up big time.

Clean one box and wash a day. 5 boxes. Dr. Elsey's is expensive here. I use arm and hammer or something on sale at walmart..... Litter is expensive. :( t laurieskatz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Dr. Elseys' Ultra Precious Cats. I fill 2 boxes from one 40lb bag. I have 6 boxes for 5 cats. I scoop 3 or more times a day. Dump each box and wash with soap and water and refill with fresh litter once a week. I wash a box a day (take Sunday off) so kittys always have one fresh box. I have 3 boxes in each of 2 locations (3 on second floor and 3 on main floor).. I use the high back boxes from Drs. Foster Smith. I don't buy the covers, just the boxes. If they are more zealously using on box, I may have to add litter part way through the week. Laurie
