Does anyone out there use cat litter to compost? I know that cat litter can carry diseases from cats that may not be good for plants, but honestly, I don't have much of a garden anyway, so probably won't use it as compost was meant to be used if it'd do more harm than good.
So why compost? Just because I feel so bad throwing away the types of things I do. Recycling is fine, but we don't have a greenwaste or anything for food scraps. So just to reduce the amount of trash, I'd like to compost. What I'll do with the compost when done, I don't know. I can take it to my parents' house and then put it in the greenwaste (they have it, we don't).
Of course, if anyone of you use it (droppings removed, of course) and it works, I'd love to use the compost as it was meant to be! I currently use Feline Pine. Would that work? Does anyone use another type that works better?
I've tried to compost without the cat litter, but there's a lot more food waste than plant, and it basically just rots. Even though I don't need a high quality compost, I don't want food rotting and stinking in my back yard! So I THINK this would help balance it out, and help everything to decompose in a cleaner way.
I know I've gone off on a bunch of tangents, but if any of you have insights to anything compost or compost and cat litter related, I would appreciate anything you can share!
Thanks!
