i just have one cat..but i was wondering what are some of your favorite litter brands/types..?? i used crystals. and i liked how there was no smell..not as much mess..but i hate when they pee because it just gets mixed around..and i have to clean the litterbox out A LOT. so i moved to like 'scoop' crystal stuff, but the tinier particles get everywhere! and it has the 'litter' smell sometimes...i have a front entry litter box..and even with a towel down litter still will get tracked, i also have a matt too..just curious! thanks!

for anyone, or both of you. was it hard switching over? i know your supposed to do the 'gradual' thing. but to be honest i switch my cat directly from his first kitty litter, to crystals ( i might have kinda mixed those, then changed) then directly from crystals to the scoopable. i just feel it can be a waste of littler mixing them because you just throw it away that much quicker..but if i switch and do the pellets? that will be a fat mess? i feel i could probably just put those in the box and river wouldnt care and just still go in there?? just wondering!!

Wood Stove Pellets cant be found at Petco..You can find Feline pine. which is much spendier...

Try a local hardware store or a place like a fleet farm or tractor supply
