I am in a litter dilema. No matter what I try, I have litter dust everywhere. And with 9 cats, thats a lot! So, I've tried wheat litter, corn litter, pine litter, newspaper litter, and either they were even MORE dusty or the cats wouldn't use it. So, the only one I haven't tried is the crystal type of litter. I haven't tried because it seems to me the litter has sharp edges around the tiny pieces and I worry that would cut or be very uncomfortable on a cats paws. It seems to me to be like a person walking barefoot on stones. Has anyone used it and would recommend it? What do you think? On an entirely differnt note, I don't know why, but M4mom came into my mind yesterday. Wonder what ever happened to her. -- Piggy's Pad

There are a lot of people who just upped and disappeared and I always wonder if they got tired of the board, if their computers fried and they can't remember the URL (or how to do a search) or if they're so incredibly busy (and there really is NO such thing as being "that" busy) that they just don't have the time. But then again, that means that those of us who are here, are here because we *want* to be. As for the litter issue, I hear ya about the dust. We use Exquisicat that we get at Petsmart. It comes in 40 pound boxes (scoopable) and we go through a lot. But yep, it's dusty. I work my way through the basement with the vacuum and the furniture brush, trying to suck it all up. The basement actually only gets dusted if we have a pool party here or during the Christmas holidays. (NT) -- Sandy, 10:44:32 am, Sat, 03/01/08
Cjheck out Litter Pearls, I think that one is round balls, shouldn't have sharp edges. I have one box with the corn cob litter in it. Someone uses it each day but it ahsn't caught on wih the others. It isn't dusty and it tracks less even though it's lighter weight than regular scoopable. I only notice the dust in Goldies room where it's enclosed. There is dust in all the ridges of the door and it's a mess but the other boxes are in the basement and I don't notice it so much. I was going to post one of these days and ask what litter everyone was using now. Seems like you don't have much choice sometimes, you like it, the cats don't, it's dusty but is good a stopping odors...I am not sure we can have it all! (NT) -- Denise, 11:58:46 am, Sat, 03/01/08
