When the black cat was 16
years old we adopted a Siamese
that was two years old. He
had been de-clawed, so we
could not let him go outside.
This meant that we needed
a cat litter box that would
be used on a regular basis.
The natural litter did nothing
to control odor so we needed
to try a different product.
When we adopted our new cat
the previous owner sent along
a cat litter box, carrier
and some food as well as litter.
We decided that we would keep
both litter boxes so that
neither cat would have to
change what they were used
to.
Shortly after adopting the
second cat we moved to a different
location. This meant everyone
adjusting to a new routine.
The cat litter box was now
in a basement area that was
easy to access for the younger
cat but the steps were difficult
for the old black cat. We
needed to place his litter
box so it was easier for him
to access. We also bought
an air purification system
that helped eliminate the
odors. We tried several different
litters that are supposed
to help with odor, but we
found that these kinds of
litter added to the problem
by producing a heavy floral
scent when the cats moved
the litter. We have decided
that the air purification
is a much better way of dealing
with the odor and also helps
kill the germs.
So no more odor compaints! |
