Dumping cat litter can be a real nightmare. Not only is it messy, but it’s smelly as well. Can you get away without dumping your cat’s litter box?

No matter how much you scoop, traditional clay litters need to be dumped. Although they clump, liquid waste can soak into the litter without clumping. This will eventually cause your cat to stop using the litter box, not to mention it’ll stink up your home.

Some corn and crystal based litters don’t have to be changed nearly as often. These types of litters are more expensive, but they have superior clumping capabilities, meaning you can scoop nearly every mess out of the litter box easily. It is still recommended that you change out the litter from time to time. If the new litter you add to the old litter is significantly lighter, it’s time to dump it out.
