RE: Feline Pine Kitty Litter Cuts Down Odors
I like Feline Pine, but my cat kicks the pellets all over the place. I've been making my own -- http://alliesanswers.com/tip-of-the ... -day-make-your-own-kitty-litter/1044
And it works really well.

RE: Feline Pine Kitty Litter Cuts Down Odors
Confused? I have a hard time believing that there is a product(thats been around for years) hurting animals and still being sold. It is only dangerous when inhaled on constant basis. Cats get in and go. Softwood(pine, cedar) shavings are dangerous for critters mostly. http://www.ratfanclub.org/litters.html
I LOVE FELINE PINE. It's all I buy. Its completly natural and doesn't add to the landfill! Have you seen those plastic pellets? What a wasteful thing! Plastic does not compost or break down in anyway.

Pine Wood chips are taboo for smaller animals like bunnies and cats because the pine oiils in it destroy either the liver or kidneys after a while. God bless you. : )

RE: Feline Pine Kitty Litter Cuts Down Odors
I tried mixing it with my usual litter, but even with just a tiny bit, my cat refused to use the litter box. I think he hated the texture of it. I tried two different ones made of newspapers, but didn't think they absorbed too well. I'm now using one that's made of corn; it's pretty expensive, but works really well. The texture is a lot like regular litter. You scoop the clumps and flush them down the toilet, and just add more litter as it goes down. Occassionally, we change the litter completely. I just didn't like my cat breathing in all the dust from regular cat litter.

The trick with getting cats used to Feline Pine is that you start out by mixing it in with the litter presently being used and then eventually switch it to 100% Feline Pine. My cats have never had a problem w/ it and we like it a lot, too.
The only pine I heard you shouldn't use around cats (or probably any animal for that matter) is PineSol.

Dear Terri,
I have worked for a Veterinarian for MANY years and our Doctors DO NOT recommend using pine near your cats at all. The reason for this is because it can cause upper respitory infections. We can recommend a product by thr name of Care Fresh, it is made from recycled paper. I have 3 cats and I use a clumping litter and I sprinkle in some Kitty baking soda.
Good luck

I use MUlti-Cat, and I also put about a 1/4 of a box of baking soda into the bottom of the tray. That seems to help cut down the odor. Multi-cat is not inexpensive, but it works much better than any bargain brand, and is worth the cost because it is not stinky.

I have five cats and tried Feline Pine - The first day or so was so-so - after that the smell was the same as with the regular clay litter. I'm trying Fresh Step next that has a different type of odor eliminator. Good luck!

I tried it once and my cat would not go anywhere near it.
