Feline pine original or clumping?

2008-10-22T21:20:25Z

Wondering a bit about the 2 products. Is the clumping litter pellets as well? And the normal feline pine, do the pellets turn into something sawdust-like? How would one go about cleaning something like that? I’ve seen the Feline pine litter boxes but my kitties are insane and there is 4 of them...so I have this on-going debate in the back of my mind, of to just buy something they use until i need to change the whole thing or constantly scoop? They like an enclosed litter pan, which is why I’m not planning on buying the feline pine litter box’s. I have been interested in the litter boxes where you tip them over and then back right side up and it collects the clumps, but if the clumping feline pine is pellets I’m ot sure it would work, since I’m assuming they’ve designed it for ‘normal’ clumping clay litter. If it helps anyone who can answer some of my questions as to comparing pellet size I use yesterdays news for my ferrets.

thanks so much!

Feline Pine Scoop "Clumping"

2008-08-24T17:40:36Z

I find this to be a great product and I have started using it. I have one very important question: Is it safe to flush the clumps in the toilet? or Am I asking for problems in the future? Thank you.

Hairballs

2008-09-21T23:50:23Z

I adopted my cat when she was about 5 years old, and since the day I got her she has had frequent hairballs. We’ve had her about a year and a half now, and although I brush her and give her hairball medicine daily she still seems to get them, though not as frequently as when I didn’t give her the medicine. The vet checked her out and said she didn’t have any underlying issues, so I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions that might help.

Feeding

2008-08-23T18:22:03Z

I have 2 ferile cats I adopted, one is a black and white slinky style he is nearly 3, his playmate is a tiger striped brown lady with adorable eyes who is nearly 2. Problem is I have always fed them Fancy Feast Elegant Medleys ( because that is all they would eat, (no inexpensive food for them) they also have fresh dry food on the side and fresh water daily. In the last few weeks they have decided they will only eat certain flavours of the Elegant Medleys, should I buy just chicken and tuna and cook that for them instead since they have become so finicky they only eat 2 cans between them a day and some of the dry, plus I give them treats before and after I come home from work. Neither of them are over weight. They have their shots and have been fixed. Should I be worried and take them to our vet?

getting started - not sure how to deal with the sawdust

2008-08-09T15:38:18Z

Hi, I’m considering changing to FP from crystals after a lot of internet research. We’ve used crystal litter for several years and loved it (no odor for 5 cats) but Wal-Mart no longer carries the inexpensive brand of crystals we were using. Going with the name brand crystals would double our cost. With 5 cats that’s a budget-buster so we really do need to find something else. From what I’ve read on the FP website and in reviews so far, it seems that FP will work similarly to the crystals and will be more affordable, not to mention being healthier.

My biggest question about FP is what to do about the sawdust. I’ve read about how FP turns to sawdust over time, but haven’t seen any posts talking about how to deal with it. Do you have to buy a sifting cat box to make this litter work? Does the sawdust turn to muddy slush in the bottom of the box? With the crystals, the urine is absorbed and I just scoop the dehydrated solids. Is that basically how this works? I’ve read all the material I could find on the website and may have missed it, but am having a problem figuring out how to use FP unless I buy all new litter boxes (ouch). Any thoughts?

Does anyone have any comments about changing from crystals to FP?

Thanks,
Sylvia from Oklahoma City

Private messages…?

2008-07-23T19:59:55Z

Has anyone here been able to access their private messages? I’ve never been able to get it to work. I tried using the PM to send messages to the moderator and other people, and I’ve tried to go to my own inbox… I assumed I had one since it says I have 0 unread. But since it’s never said there were any messages actually IN the inbox, and since it’s never worked for me I thought that part of the forum wasn’t fully set up yet.

Then I checked my regular email today and see this:

Charlene,
******** has just attempted to send you a Private Message,but your InBox is full, exceeding the maximum of 60. Please log in and remove unwanted messages from your InBox at: http://www.naturesearth.com/

Hellooooo… I can’t get into my inbox!!! I’ll be happy to delete some if I can actually get it to open! Whenever I click the Private Messages link, it goes to my control panel screen and won’t let me go anywhere else. I’m sorry to anyone who tried sending me messages, I haven’t been ignoring you, I never knew I got anything!

changing over to feline pine?

2008-04-13T10:01:30Z

I am ready to change over and bought the FP scoop. I know on the original it says to transition your cats over to it, do you have to do that w/ the scoop kind as well? I really want to change it but don’t want to freak out my kitties! I have 2- Tyson, adopted from a shelter in 2003 and Girlie stray kitten rescued in 2004.
