Sure, Natalie. POst away! Anything will help. I was lucky to be able to adopt
out one from this brood, but after trying for months to find suitable adoptive
parents via Craigslist in my area, I gave up. So many people want cats without
strings - without a backup vet, and without the means to
OK, will do – I will make it into more of a catchy poster and copy you!

-Try World's Best liter, based on corn. If you scoop daily, it will last a
long time. I have 7 liter boxes and only buy 1 bag every other month, maybe
more in rainy/snowy weather. Course my guys go out for a couple of hours in
early am and early afternoon. We much prefer dry leaves and

I, too have 7 boxes: 3 large, 2 medium, and 2 small ones.
Does the bag of corn replace all of the litter in your boxes?
Oh, and about how much is it by you? I can't afford anything really
expensive, but I'm spending $20 a week now to replace the Tidy Cats

I use pine pellets, $5.99 (tax exempt) at the feed store. A 40 lb. bag lasts
me about a week. I scoop every day, dump and wash 5 boxes every 3-4 days. I
have about 24 cats pooping and peeing non-stop in the boxes. Over 4 days turns
into a major disaster. Of course, some of them think
Oh, @#$%!!!. The price of Kirkland Adult Maintenance cat food used to be
$16.99. Then it went up a year later to $17.59. Well, I bought two 20 lb.
bags a week and a half ago. This Tuesday, I went back to Costco because my
cats ate most of the Kirkland and the price had gone up to $18.99!!!
We went the good food route and were feeding everyone Blue for a long time
and everyone kept throwing up (A LOT) so we went back to Purina Complete and
everyone seems happy, there is no more throwing up and they are healthy. Our
vet said some cats cannot tolerate the high fat and protein in
ME TOO! I only have 7 and their food and litter costs over $100.00 per month.
Vet bills are something else.

I'm curious as to how much you are spending per day per cat feeding dry. I
am able to feed raw for 70 cents/day per cat. If you didn't buy the
chicken from Whole Foods, which charges about twice as much as do, say
local ethnic butchers, then you could roll in for around half that.
I've heard
World's Best at Tractor Supply runs around $14.00 per bag. But it does last
longer than the clay, is biodegradeable and weighs a lot less so I don't get a
hernia bringing it in the house. I scoop 2 times a day and add new only when
the box gets low so it lasts a lot longer and it seems to
Since Homey and Nitnoy, I feed half canned and dry. I also have water
fountains and that makes a diffrence in how much they drink. I have to fill up
the 2 fountains every morning and afternoon. Each takes 64 ounces. Course
Casey spills some. She likes to bat at the water before she drinks.
I had tried Feline Pine pellets and my guys did not like them. Got stuck
between their pads and they went outside the bos in protest. Also, the pellets
disolved into dust and I could not scoop it very good. World's Best makes nice
clumps that life out nicely.

My kitties don’t care much for the hard pellets either (they prefer the
feline pine clumping), but if your babies don't mind it, then that's great!
Whatever works and to each it's own :)

I used to used World's Best . I still think it's great, but I've started using
the Blue Buffalo brand now like it even better. If I wait until it's on sale
it's as much as WB. It is expensive, but I change the litter half as often, so
it works out in the end.

Don't Litter, Fix Your
I spend about $1000 a month with a population that ranges from 25-40, depending
on adoptions and new intake. We feed primarily canned but with dry (mostly
Kirkland Premium and the no-grain in the orange bag). It's a big chunk of
money every month but the cats are happy and healthy.

It would be nice if I could do that but I'm feeding around 35 cats right now.
Feeding raw would cost me around $9 a day with turns into around $250 a month.
On top of which, I would be a little nervous to feed raw chicken to the cats.
Some of them probably wouldn't even understand what it
I have 24 cats total... 14 at home and 10 in my shelter/sanctuary.
Plus I feed a feral colony.
I use Purina One which is moderately priced. About $23.00 for a 16 pound
bag at Walmart. I spend about $150.00 to $200. a week on cat food and
litter and it is infuriating how they keep cutting
I have tried every clumping litter out there, I think - I used to like World's
Best - but I started not liking the smell when it gets old - it stinks - also
two of my kitties developed liver failure and died - during the time I used

This is a horror story. It's true. My cats will tell you it is. One day,
several years ago, I decided to purchase clumping litter. In those days I was
using Traditional, a brand put out by HEB supermarket. Traditional is a white
litter, not too much dust, at that time very inexpensive.
