I actually some research on crystal litter with my previous cats because I thought about switching and didn't like what a found. :( The blue dye chemical (cobalt chloride) is known to cause cancer in both cats and humans, the crystals can be very uncomfortable on their paws and can cause some...

I find all litters disgustingly dusty. "Dust Free" claims on the bags/boxes are all lies! I actually have a respiratory issue so it worries me to be using (not using but cleaning) practically any litter. But it doesn't matter which I've used and what the price point is -- they're all bad for...

I live in a small apartment and definitely do not have room for 3 litter boxes. 😂 But I can squeeze another small one in if necessary - if none of the other above suggestions work out. My litter box actually has very high sides like yours. If it didn't, I would have a huuuuuge mess too! Haha...

I think there are some cheaper litters that work well and some that do not. And by the same token, there are plenty of more expensive litters that are horrible too. With my previous cats I thought more expensive meant better but learned that is definitely not the case. So it is definitely trial...

They get a good balance of wet and dry and their coats are quite lovely, they don't seem dehydrated. But that's interesting - I did not know that! Good to know for future. I was saying above, despite these two litters being more bargain brands, I never used to have an issue with them clumping...

This is the one I use from Canadian Tire: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/clumping-cat-litter-22-kg-1421989p.html#srp I use this 80% of the time. I find it dusty but up until recently I found it clumped fine. Same with the other one. Yes, they are both neutered. I think the odour is...

If anyone wants to know the name of the litter: Purrfect Start Multi-Cat Clumping Litter (Unscented)

I notice they really dislike not having enough litter in the box (like they would turn around and come back out and refuse to use the box, lol). They like having a lot. So I usually put a couple inches in for them. I've never used a non-clumping litter either but that is basically what I'm...

Thanks for responding! I do use a "bargain brand" from Costco. I actually thought it was just this little going downhill at first - it still could be. I just assumed it was the cats' excessive digging because the clumping did seem to work previously. I also sometimes use another multi-cat...

I have two cats, brothers, and they both have very strange litter habits. They were strays so maybe that's why. They are almost 2 years old. They take a while to find a spot to "go." Lots of digging and turning around. It took me a while to put two and two together and understand why my litter...

I love this thread! :loveeyes: These are Sherlock's eyes in sunlight... (I promise he has a body! Hahaha. He's lying on one of his cat tower platforms and I took this head on. He just looks like a floating head, it's hilarious.)

I got a great one of Watson the other day...

Thank you! If I do ever consider one again, I will look for one. That does sound like it would be less gross. Both of my cats are young and don't mind jumping right now so keeping it higher is also a good idea. Thank you for the tip!

Thank you so much. :redheartpump: Although I will forever miss my Salem because we had such a close and special bond, they are definitely helping. Animals have always had such a positive impact on my mental health and well-being. They eat both canned and dry, so I could definitely add some...
