    Has anyone used "World's Best" litter?

    I used to use that but I hated the fine layer of yellow dust all over my house plus the cat's paws also had the stuff on them.  Most of the so-called natural litters don't have good odor control or clumping ability.  WBCL sometimes would have ants in it because it is corn - my one cat would eat...

    litter box location

    I have a Rubbermaid tote that I converted to a litterbox and it is in the washroom.  I love the totes because of the high sides - my one female urinates standing up and none of the store bought boxes worked.  The furniture stuff is nice but expensive and I don't like the fact that the cat has to...

    wanting to change litter for multi-cat house hold and need some advice

    I am currently switching over to Perfect Litter by Pet Healthy Holdings (www.perfectlitter.com) from Dr. Elsey's R&R Crystal litter.  The crystal tracks everywhere and it smells awful - no odor control at all, in my opinion.  I've used Dr Elsey's litter in the blue bag for years (unbeatable...

    The age old question...My wife and I need a vacation. Caring for our cat while were away.

    My Cat Nanny visits twice a day to feed, play and clean litter boxes - she also brings in the mail.  I've used her for years, she is reliable, the cost if reasonable and I have peace of mind while away.

    what's your favorite cat litter?

    "Perfect Litter" by Pet Healthy Holdings.  It is extremely lightweight, long lasting and litter is the type that monitors for wellness depending on color of litter.  For me, one 4 lb bag of litter lasts for 2 cats about 3-4 weeks.  Odor control is good (much better than crystal) clumping isn't...

    Boarding my young cat

    I would find a certified pet sitter to come in twice a day to take care of your kitten.  I have always used cat sitters and love them.  The cats don't get taken to an unfamiliar place with scary sounds and smells especially with a mix of dogs and cats. Check out The National Association of Pet...

    Open windows/kitten safety

    When I got my first cat at 5 months old (she was not that small, like a tiny kitten),  she crawled up between the screen and window.  That was very scary, I grabbed her tail and pulled her down, there wasn't any other option to removing her from between screen and window.  It was a heart...

    Hypoallergenic cat litter for "allergic" cat

    Try Dr Elsey's Respiratory Relief silica litter - I've been using this for my one cat with allergies and it has helped a lot.  My Vet also suggested giving her L-Lysine in her food and that also helped so that she didn't need her fall allergy shot.  Normally she gets two shots a year Fall and...

    Litter Robot Questions

    The "natural" litters do not control odor, before spending hundreds of dollars on automatic litter sifters I'd change litters.  Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat (blue bag) is a hard clumping and odor controling litter - out of all the others I find this litter is great.  I also always sprnkle baking...

    Heat wave + longhair cat = problems!

    Both my cats eat less when summer hits in fact that is the only time they will eat food that has been stored in the refrigerator.  One cat is long haired the other short hair.  People do shave long haired cats in the summer to help them, I've never done that and I know my cat wouldn't tolerate...

    Long hair cats & Cat Litter Choices?

    I have a long haired cat and occasionally I find bits and pieces dragged out of the box on her tail.  A simple brush or comb takes care of that.  She must drag her tail in the litter when digging and then the wet stuff sticks.  But I've never had it sticking to her backside with either Dr...

    What's the best litter for odor control?

    I used Dr Elseys Precious Cat Litter (blue bag) for years and it has superior clumping and odor control, very little tracking and not too dusty.  I've switched to their crystal litter due to allergy problems and it has helped a lot even though it does track a lot, it has given my kitty some...

    Vicious Nightly Attacks By My Otherwise Very Sweet Cat

    I agree that he might be bored and needs some interactive play time.  Playing with a cat before bedtime usually will keep them sleeping most of the night also give a little treat because after they eat most cats groom themselves and go to sleep.  When you are away from home put a radio on or...

    Pica?

    I had a friend whose cat would lick photographs, my cat occasionally will eat the wool fuzzys from my area rug.  I'd keep the garbage bags out of site, he could also get his head stuck in the handles of them (I speak from experience) Strings, ribbons, rubber bands, etc. are dangerous if...

    Kitten Pooping On the Floor

    Diarrhea can dehydrate a kitten quickly, it you can you probably should take her to a Vet to be checked out.  I agree that the kitten probably couldn't make it to her box but even if she did and it being dirty she found elsewhere.  She also might not have known where the box was because she was...

    My cat likes junk wet food

    Junk food: my girls LOVED Dominick's (Safeway) brand Priority - did I say they LOVED it.  Now that Dominick's has closed it is nowhere to be found ... poor kitties.  Every once in awhile I would get the salmon and they would inhale it.  I considered that food their McDonalds Big Mac.  I buy a...
