Feces
Should you flush it?
If you put it in the garbage it's probably be preserved by the black plastic bag and won't decompose. If you don't wrap it in plastic your fiendly code enforcement officer will get you. |

If you don't wrap it in plastic your fiendly code enforcement officer will get you. Get a dog. :^) Seriously, though. If it's from the litterbox you *don't* want to flush it unless you are on good terms with a plumber. I use the plastic bags from the grocery and scoop the clumps from the litterbox when it needs it and put that bag in the trash. It'll eventually decompose at the dump, probably before lots of other things there. |

It's just feces and much smaller than what a toilet normally gets. Unless there's a ton of litter stuck to it, flushing is pretty common and safe. It's *your* plumbing... |

Some areas of the country, where sewerage is draining into an open water source, ask people not to flush cat feces because of the danger of toxoplasmosis and the danger that poses for pregnant women.
