Re: cat litter box questions
DH scoops twice a day, and around every other week will then scrap everything in the litter box and clean the entire box, the mat under it etc so that there is no smell in the house and our cat won't refuse to use her box.
Also, not all litter is the same, and some litter will bother your cats. We found that for our maine coon, some clumping litter will cause hard rocks in the bottoms of her feet, so we had to switch. We tried a paper or pine based litter and she was not happy with us at all, so we switched back to a clay clumping litter that has no deoderant or other smelly stuff and she's happy. Go figure.
When we had two cats, I think my dad did that around once a week with the litter box washing, and we kept two boxes. My mom would probably have more to say now that they have about 4(?) cats in the house.
