I like to know stuff. Any time I try something new I consume tons of information on HOW TO DO THIS NEW THING.
Getting a cat has been no exception. I was shocked to find out how much controversy there is on all things cat! Wet food/dry food/clumping litter/non clumping litter/corn based/clay based/wheat based litter.
The sum total of all my knowledge of how to care for cats came from tv commercials and it turns out, most of that stuff isn’t great for cats. WHO KNEW.
Anyway, totally trying not to turn into a neurotic cat owner, but if I tell you I watched a video on the best way to clean a litter box then I think you know how I’m doing.

I house-sat for years. The best litter was the clumping. It was sand-like, easy to clean, didn’t hurt the cats, and didn’t stink to high heaven (those crystals that you stir are ASS).

You are not a cat owner, your cat is a people owner ;) As long as your cat is happy and healthy, you’re doing a great job.

Cat people are frucking nuts. My sister runs a cat rescue and gets hate mail for feeding a major brand dry food instead of some obscure ‘natural’ food.

The best way to scoop the litter box is to outsource it to your child or husband.

Need more anxiety? It’s amazing how often cats swallow things like hair bands, toy pieces, string, and require major surgery to remove the offenders. Sylvia has more motivation now to police the place for potential dangers and put them away.

I used to work for this company: softclaws.org — Funny to see their website hasn’t changed *at*all* since I left over 3 years ago….

The food part is pretty important. I’d get the fancy stuff from Big Bad Woof—the meat-based, non-rice/wheat/bullshit cats can’t digest stuff. I blame the synthetic crap on George’s diabetes. It’s all a learning process, even with seasoned cat owners
