Yeah. Turns out he was right. Oops. Just one more reason aerospace wasn't a good fit for me. -- monique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca |

ShirleyB - We have 4 fur-babies and we use the Tidy Cats for Multiple Cats scoopable and our cats really like it. We tried the kind with the crystals and it smelled more and the cats would try to move the crystlas out of the way and just use the regular litter. So we went back to the regular clumping with no crystals and they were all happy. I'd love to find the off brand (kitty diggins?) someone mentioned - where do you buy it???? Good luck! Shahar |

This stuff really makes me miss Max.
The litter box, like the dry feeder, was for emergencies only. We are talking months. (OK weeks.) But he was 100% on target when going inside was preferable. Straight-A kitty; No instruction needed. Smarter than most humans for all I know. Unless it was really nasty weather he went outside and buried it deep, like his momma taught him. Cheers H.

Shahar I get Kitty Diggin's at Walgreen's Drug Store in the pet aisle. It's virtually identical to the Tidy Cats Scoop stuff and costs a lot less. Jill |

Shahar Thanks, Shahar, I'd heard some negative about the crystals brand, that's why I asked. If I hear anything about the off brand I'll post it here.
