We use Tidy Cat scoopable litter and have ever since we got Momma Kat 17+ years ago. We scoop twice a day, everyday and extra if someone drops a bomb. While Tidy Cat does track worse than others, it does not have the dust that the others have. So far, I don't think we have had any issues from it and I am sure the kitties like having a cleaner smelling box. We have tried the wheat stuff, and the pine (OMG, that stinks to high heaven) and some other things but always go back to scoopable. Unfortunately, when you have high numbers you have to use something that keeps your house from smelling like one giant poop. > Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2012 16:31:24 -0400 > From: felineres...@frontier.com > To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org > Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Scoopable Litter > > I use scoopable litter, but I use the dust free kind.
