I hear you, Teppy. I hope that on balance you finish the day feeling productive and fulfilled.
This here's a recipe for unpleasantness.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Okay, now back out the door for the dentist. Meh.

um ... in regard to the light-weight kitty litter, I've heard some bad things about some of it - that it causes problems for the kitties. Don't know if it's for real, since I read it on the internet, but you might want to check it out.

Toddson, Snopes looked into those claims and found them unproved, though they didn't say they were false. [link]
I bought some of the lightweight stuff for my cat and the problem with it was that it was so strongly perfumed that neither me or Oz could stand it. (There was a lot of peeing on the floor that weekend ETA: by the cat.) Even after dumping 70% of what was in the pan and replacing that with unscented litter, the smell to about a month of daily cleaning to completely disappear.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The silica sand (i.e. the most expensive litter on Earth) is the only thing that does not cause our persnickety female cat to pee in the bathtub. We have tried all other litters and they are JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR HER TENDER PAWS.

Well, glad to have the info ... and, since I don't have a cat, it's not something that directly affects me, but I'd hate for anyone's cat to be hurt by the stuff.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
My cat Leo definitely has a favorite litter and it's Arm&Hammer unscented. I've been trying to find a low-dust litter, but even the ones that claim to be low dust throw dust in the air. I'd rather they didn't breathe it into their little lungs.
I tried a "natural" litter (aren't they all basically natural?) called SWheat Scoop that's made from wheat... stalks, I guess, idk... it was bad. Bugs appeared. I never had bugs in kitty litter, ever, except when using that stuff.

Back from the dentist. Now I have some pressing work that rolled in while I was in the dentist's chair. But I will by god get a nap before my improv class.

Thrive to spite them
I usually use Tidy Cat crystal cat litter. But when I ahd the freak out about Penny's health I set up a second litter box with other litter that she likes better. I don't like it as much but I'm trying to keep the kitty-human peace.

Teppy, definitely take that nap. You've earned it and your body needs to heal.
My sun basket order is in. Bad planning on my part to order on a week when none of ltc's grandparents are here. Means I have to lift it into the house myself.
