01/03 - Taco Friday!?

New here, but I had to comment about the cat stuff! I just switched to using pellets for litter. Money saver and better than cat litter. With 5 cats, I was about to buy the $800 litter box. Switched to pellets and those things last awhile and absorb better. I even stopped using my automatic cat box because the litter pellets are so much better and there's not little pieces of litter all over the house!

 

Trust me...you don't want it! Don't go looking for it.

 

It's only on certain items, I guess.

 

Oh please.

Like fifty million cat owners have no clue wtf they're talking about.

And who's the boss in your house? lol

I was actually told the opposite. Cats like the enclosed one as they don't want to be watched when pooping, much like adults, and being "exposed" and vulnerable while taking a poopie makes them nervous.

 

100% it's the baby.

 

Can you weigh in on the clay vs walnut vs corn debate that's currently raging in my shopping cart?

..also hi, welcome to the site, monday morning people actually do work on mturk.. sometimes.

 

What kind of pellets do you use? I'm constantly seeking new litter options
Also welcome

 

rotten skunk booty

 

My cat seriously doesn't care. She'll look at me, glare and yawn all while taking a poo.

 

Open minded about litter but closed (boxed) about litter pans.. smh

 

My dog loves to look me dead in the eye while he's pooping.

 

Way to fit right in with the forum. Welcome! Share your cat knowledge. We can all learn. I'm willing to consider pellets. What kind? Where you buy them? What they cost?

 

I just feed my dogs cheap ass dry food and actually make them their wet food. Butchers sell stuff like beef liver really cheap. Add in some potatoes, peas and carrots for extra nutrition and it's really good for them. Titan eats 5lbs of food per day minimum. He ain't getting no expensive dry food.

Investing in a vacuum sealer to portion it out was the best decision I ever made.

 

Not closed minded, nor are any of my boxes closed - I'm just cheap af and don't want to pay that much for a poop box

 

He's doing that because pooping makes them vulnerable and they are using you as a lookout.

 

I was peeing earlier and the ferret apparently snuck in the bathroom with me. She decided to pee on the floor right in front of me. I guess she didn't want me to feel alone.

 

I have an ignorant but sincere question.
Why can't they just shit outside?

 

Because outdoor cats get taken to the pound.

 

Wait.... I didn't think that phrasing through

meh it's fine, take it as you will

Wait.... I didn't think that through either... fuck

 

SEE?
Vets ARE WRONG.

CATS PREFER NOTHING AT ALL PREDICTABLE.

Except they want what you don't have for them or hate what you do or want what the dog has, or want your chair or your place in bed or your food on your plate or...well, y'all get the picture.

@ChrisTurk Buy the cheap one I sent you, use it without the lid for a while, then try lid and see if they're ok. It's like $16, massively cheaper than those cadillac of poop boxes you're eyeing
