How is that litter type? I'm planning on switching because the Arm and Hammer Microguard is getting expensive and produces a "fresh" smell that's a bit too strong for my sense of smell.I have been wondering about litter box maintenance. Currently I have a 45 gallon storage bin that has been converted into a litter box (complete with air filtration). It contains close to 40lbs of litter (Dr. Elsey's RR) and is used by a single cat. I only scoop it out every few days or so. Roughly once a month I dump the bin and clean it with alcohol/vinegar and then water and light dish soap. It seems like I have been doing things wrong.
Also how old is your cat? Mines seems to have up to 8~10 clumps that range from small to large. By large I mean the size of a 8 oz steak large which could be two potty sessions that clumped up together but that also means she's peeing more as well. She only poops once or twice a day though but she pees a lot. So I can't imagine scooping it out once every few day or so.
My cat is 10 months old so I'm trying to figure out if this is just a kitty phase.
