Any cat expert will say you should never line the litter box before putting in the litter. The plastic sheets sold as litter box liners are a disaster because the cat invariably tears a hole in that liner when scratching, allowing urine to flow underneath the liner where it will stay in a smelly puddle, unable to be absorbed by the litter. Either that or the liner will wrinkle up just enough to trap wet litter, which will prevent you from scooping it, and therefore breed germs and a foul smell. |



clumping litter is not for us long haired cats – my brother peanut and i are maine coon cats and when we went it use to stick to our long hair on our back legs – not pretty. also we were told that when we lick our feet the litter goes into our belly and stays there and makes us thirsty which could cause dehydration – so please give some thought to this – we want to be with you furrever!

we left out one important thing – after the sand lays in our belly it makes us thirsty – and we drink more, and then we ingest more sand, drink more and eventually will lead to dehydration.
Hey Long Haired Guys – Do you know about Dr. Elsey’s Cat Attract Senior Litter?? It’s a clumping litter made of synthetic but biodegradable crystals made for older kitties who squat lower and longer AND it’s also for long-haired cats because it doesn’t stick to their feathers. So give it a try – and I don’t think it will stick to your paws, either, so no belly full of litter.
