Cleaning Boxes Using Pine Pellets As Litter

I've been loving pine pellets as litter for a few months now, and have been telling friends about all the benefits (low cost, low dust/tracking environmentally friendly, etc)
A few have asked how the boxes get cleaned, so I made a video using both a traditional box and a self-sifting one for anyone interested.


Yep, a chick in pajamas cleaning cat boxes--Do I know how to party or what?

LOL, thanks very much for posting this !

m3rma1d - If you wanted to save yourself a few steps when it comes to the non sifting litter box. Have you thought of getting a pasta colander and placing the empty colander in the bag, then dump the whole content of the litter pan in the colander, shake it, and let all the saw dust fall into the bag then replace the good litter back in the box.
Just a thought.

That *is* a good idea!!

At this point though, I've got almost all boxes replaced with the shifting tray kind--Except for the box the foster kiddenz use, but they're only here temporarily anyway.
