1. How many cats do you have? 3

2. How many litter boxes do you have? One gigantic tote in a cabinet

3. How deep do you keep your litter? In a gigantic tote with a lid

4. How often do you scoop your litter? I use non-clumping, so I scoop poops twice daily

5. How often do you completely change out the litter in the box? Once a week or more often as needed

6. What brand of litter do you most often use? Tidy Cats Multi-Cat

7. How much litter would you say you go through a month, for all of your boxes combined? 50 pounds

I switched to non clumping clay as I was spending a fortune on litter. I have a CRF kitty who drinks and pees LOTS, so clumping litter was no longer making any sense to use.

When she is gone, I will likely switch back to clumping.
