To my knowledge the onl;y way it could be hazardous is if you are pregnant. I just smelt some myslef (while I was taking out the garbage) and it was EXTREMELY unpleasant. I believe just like dry litter it is infested with bacteria that can be harmful to an unborn child, but to an adult it should be fine.

Cats will avoid a litterbox that is not very clean and fresh smelling, so your cat found a lump or a wet spot, and couldn't wait to get away.


Why sawdust should not be use as a litter in a deep litter system?

If sawdust gets wet, and is left wet for any length of time, the natural fermentation processes can generate enough heat to catch fire. A cat will bury his urine, leaving a wet volume buried in the sawdust, where it cannot evaporate, to ferment and heat up.

I wouldn't normally recommend it. However, as long as it didn't fall in the WET litter, it might be OK. On second thought, no. It would have to be a very expensive drug to do that.


Why does the cat meow when its going to the bath room?

Through my experiences with my 2 cats for meowing in the cat tray are:They need to poop, which for some reason makes them have a mad half hour: they chase and attacks all sorts, even jump up the walls.If they have had antibiotics from the vet and it passed through as they have a number 2, it is very painful for them.Possibly they want attention.However, if a cat cries when it is in the litter tray, it could mean that the cat has a Urinary Tract Infection, or is constipated. Both these things will cause much pain for the cat, and will often cry out in a pained and distressed manner. It is highly advisable to take the cat to the vet, and in either case to increase the amount of water the cat is drinking, either by feeding more wet food, adding water to wet food, or giving some cat milk daily or putting some chicken broth in the cat's water.

How much litter is there everyday?

This would depend on whether the litter in question is clumping or classic, and whether the cat is indoor only or indoor / outdoor. It also depends on where you are and what the local litter prices are. A 15-pound (7 kg) bin of clumping litter will last a single indoor cat about 4 - 5 weeks. If you can find non-clumping litter, and if you clean it, and turn it over completely every day (so as to break up the wet spots and slow the bacterial action), 7kg should last a single indoor cat about 6 to 8 weeks. An outdoor cat will urinate outdoors by preference, to mark his territory. 7kg of litter may last an outdoor cat as long as 4 to 6 months, but it still must be cleaned daily, and turned over completely, in case he chooses to urinate indoors.
