an awful lot depends on what litter you cat will USE--cats have a lot to say on this issue, regardless of what their humans research might show! i've found, here, that a lot has to do with the number of cats, too--there are great litters that are just not suited to use by a lot of cats at once....
 
personally, i couldn't live without clumping litter--i use clay when i have kittens, and absolutely cannot stand it.

What kind of litter do you all think is best?  I don't mean brand necessarily, but...should I be using a clay or a crystal (expensive!)...or should I go with something natural like wheat or corn or cedar?  I have to say that I'm not a huge fan of the dust that comes with clay.  But I do appreciate the clumping factor and the odor elimination. 
 
I've done a little research on clay and it sounds like the debate about it's negative effects is pretty heated...with experts on both sides.  I don't want to take the whole "natural/holistic" thing too far if it's not necessary (and my budget's already starting to stretch a bit thin, so I gotta be careful there, too).  But if clay really could be harmful to Slinky, I don't want to use it.
 
What are your thoughts?  What do you use?  My natural pet food store owner has several natural litters...but said she has to use a clay because it's the only thing her cats will use.  Please advise!  THANKS!!!
