Marylyn, What do you cut them with?
I went to a rescuer's house that had HUGE long skinny rectangular rubbermaid type things as litter boxes. I think the only problem would be changing them out completely as they probably held several hundred pounds of litter each. I need to do something about my situation though. Not nearly enough litterboxes for all my cats, and if I had the recommended 1 litterbox per cat + 1 I'd have to have a whole room with nothing but litterboxes in it.

You can mix the crystals with the clay--I do and it works pretty good. Dixie gets the little round pearls in the pads of her paws so we are trying the chips. Also consider using a Rubbermaid or knock off storage box for his litter box (no lid please). I use the 18 gallon or larger ones and cut a u-shaped hole for the cat to walk in. More room, less concentration and high walls for any difficulties hitting the litter. I love them. I started using them when Ebony was about 18 years old and was having trouble "getting down." If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

Also have him checked for a UTI. This is not natural.

I had to use clay litter because he didn't understand the crystals, but even so, I think when I get him switched to crystals, it will still be unbearable. Baking soda does not cover this smell. He's been neutered, and he's not marking, it's just out of his litter box. Is there anything I can feed him? Any product that could help? I couldn't even sleep last night because our house is unreasonably stinky! I love this guy, but I'm going to be embarrassed to let anyone over! Even my husband, who works around manure every day, was sickened by the smell!
