Clumping Litter - NOT

I like Fresh Step Cedar (because it's NOT "perfume-y"), but
not everyone carries it, and it's a bit more expensive than some of the
others. I bought something called "Clump & Flush" at Petco, last time
(not that I'd ever court plumbing problems by flushing it). It's made
from corcobs, which I thought was ecologically a good idea, but it seems
to clump at the very bottom of the litterbox, and wants to stick there,
making it hard to scoop out.

ROFL..."Clump & Flush" would sure play the devil around
here in litterbox, as not only do the short furry people *eat*
organically-based litter brands, such as SWheatshoop and
LitterGreen, but they *love* corncobs and will try to fish
them out of garbage late at night. I can just picture their
delight if I bought that brand. We'll stick w/Tidy Cat
Multiple Cat Hard Clumping, LOL.

Not actually rated as flushable on the packet I use a generic cheap
local brand from "Costcutters" (Not that they shouldn't be done for
misleading advertising with that name) lightweight cat litter.
Obviously I scoop and that flushes away no problem but every few days I
empty the box down the toilet (in 2 loads but that's because Sarrasine
likes her litter DEEP!!!!) and flush and I've never had a problem with
it. Occasionally if I'm in a hurry and throw the whole lot down it
needs a couple of flushes to go away properly but that's all

When I was doing research in how to unplug a drain that had been plugged
by clumping litter getting into it, I tried a number of different
substances trying to un-clump it.

Yowie, what *did* your results turn up? I'd like to know how to
unclump clumping litter that's plugging a drain.

The best I found was just lots and lots of water (prefferably hot) and time.

Nothign else seemed to work, although I wasn't *thorough* in my research :-)
