Title: LITTER
Post by: Ela on May 01, 2007, 10:01:18 AM
A company has sent me 2 bags of  clumping litter (marked sample A & sample B) to try out and a questionair. Now me not being a rude person needs to full in the questionnaire honestly. I cannot think of any words to describe how awful both samples are, really they are almost the same bit one slightly darker than the other. On the instructions it says don't flush down the loo, that may be because once wet it sets like cement and sticks, talk about chisel off the bottom of the tray. The smell after one wee you could smell it in the lounge (the tray is in the kitchen). The tracking is far worse than the wood pellets.

If anyone purchased litter for the first time and used that, it would certainly put them off having a litter tray in the house for life.

Yes that is what it is like. Although I must say a while ago I was caring for someones cat in its own home and they had Fullers Earth from Wilkinsons and that seemed very good. I was very surprised

It sounds horrid, ela.  I take it it's a new litter they're going to be marketing?  I think it may be back to the drawing board for a while first.

I assume it is. The only way anyone would give it a good report is if the lied on the questionnaire. I have been very truthful on my form.

I use it for my crew and it's great  :evillaugh: no smell and no sticking to the bottom of the tray like some other ones I have tried  ;D
