Dear James and Friends--No, this should work perfectly well. And some folks are now doing this, apparently with great success. Human waste compost, properly composted, can be used for human food production, but I think that cat waste compost is still reserved for non-human food composting (flowers, trees, etc.).

And the term "sustainable" has to mean "for a very long time" (A. Bartlett). "The frog does not drink up the pond in which he lives."
