Corncobs! Cedar shavings? Uh... uh, pine pellets?
Tea leaves!

Oh oh, I know! "Things My Cat Has Pooped In!"

I finally managed to lug myself over to the "Loving Pet Store" (yes, of course it's Asian) yesterday. They still don't have the minty-fresh "P-Pod" stuff we found in West Virginia, but they did have some new litters. I've been experimenting, and He-Man really doesn't give a shit what he craps in, so it's okay.

He just finished a bag of "S-Wheat" Scoop. It's made from wheat and looks like a rougher version of steel-cut oats. (Sorry if you like oatmeal. If you do, don't use this cat litter. Seriously.) Never again. The smell alone could repel the homeless. Before the wheat, it was cedar sawdust. No clumping, too much maintenance, too much tracking, but good smell.

I got two different bags this time. Can't remember one of them, but the one I poured in last night was made from green tea leaves. Yes, that is correct. I spent $17.99 on a bag of processed tea leaves for my cat to crap in. I don't even drink tea! I can't shake the notion that he's in there now, hunkered down, and making antioxidant-rich cat pee clumps. (Sorry if you like tea. If you do, don't read the previous six sentences.)

Nonetheless, I have to admit that the green tea litter smells good (grassy) and seems to be working so far. It's more lightweight than it looks, feeling a bit like Folger's Crystals (not sorry if you like Folger's Crystals). I sifted it right after He-Man did his He-Duty, and the clumping action was very good.

What do all your cats doo in?
