You can mix the crystals with the clay--I do and it works pretty good. Dixie
gets the little round pearls in the pads of her paws so we are trying the
chips. Also consider using a Rubbermaid or knock off storage box for his
litter box (no lid please). I use the 18 gallon or larger ones and cut a
u-shaped hole for the cat to walk in. More room, less concentration and high
walls for any difficulties hitting the litter. I love them. I started using
them when Ebony was about 18 years old and was having trouble "getting down."

Try probiotics (health food store or order Fastrack). Also have him checked
for a UTI. This is not natural.

Cassidy, my new FeLV+, has very aromatic pee! I had to use clay litter
because he didn't understand the crystals, but even so, I think when I get him
switched to crystals, it will still be unbearable. Baking soda does not cover
this smell. He's been neutered, and he's not marking, it's just out of his
litter box. Is there anything I can feed him? Any product that could help? I
couldn't even sleep last night because our house is unreasonably stinky! I love
this guy, but I'm going to be embarrassed to let anyone over! Even my husband,
who works around manure every day, was sickened by the smell!
