I am so happy for Andy Cat!
And many vibes for Mooshu (I love the name, too)
I think my cat thinks the back porch (enclosed, 2nd floor) is "outside". She whines and whines to go out there. I got her at age nine, and we have had two years, but I am do frightened about her getting sick.
Oh Barb, I'm so sorry to hear about Mooshu. Hugs to you and pets for him.
Beth, good news about Andy cat!
She only uses a litter box as a last resort. I'll have to research what kind of litter cats that prefer outside might be ok with.
I'm guessing that the finer the grains, the better. World's Best Cat Litter is, if not THE best, definitely the best clumping litter in regards to how well the clumps stick together, and it has a relatively fine grain. SWheat Scoop also is relatively small in grain. I have the impression that Cat Attract Litter [link] is also small grained, but I am not certain.
I got her at age nine, and we have had two years, but I am do frightened about her getting sick.
She's about the same age Harvey is (he'll be 12 in April). They are upper middle aged - like those people who are technically old enough to join AARP and get senior citizens discounts, but won't actually be retiring for another 20 years. Indoor cat life expectancy is between 15-18, and more and more cats are reaching 20 and even older.
I'll second the rec on the World's Best Cat litter.
I'll try the World's Best. I need to have a litter option for her during hurricane season too because she might have to be inside for longer than she would like.
World's Best is also flushable, which I lurve about it. The litterbox lives by the toilet and clumps get flushed.
Nine hours and still no sign of the cat. You can see a flash of glowing eyes in the closet so she is in fact here.
Oy. My insurance company is once again insisting that they'd don't cover my physical therapy.
