The amount of people in this thread telling on themselves is staggering.
“I am to lazy to clean my cat’s shit and that’s their fault and everone is like that too”.They are referring to the litter box you can’t smell anymore due to smell blindness. I love a nice cat, but it’s really frustrating how many people insist the litter box in their house doesn’t smell.
Just get your cats to do their business outside. We haven’t had a litterbox for a decade. The cats go to the bushes behind our garden. Never seen or smelled a single thing anywhere in our home or garden. Only the occasional dead mouse.
Obviously doesn’t apply if you live in an appartment.
The effect that has on the animal population around your house is pretty devastating
That depends on where you live. Every ecosystem is different.
Australia or USA? Yes thats bad.
Central Europe? Not so much.
Source?
Why? Because of the 3 mice they kill a year?
I don’t live in the US.
Ah yes, the non US cat, way different, doesn’t kill animals in droves for fun, sorry, my bad. Justify it however you want doesn’t change the fact that loose domesticated cats are detrimental to the wildlife in the area.
As I mentioned, our cats kill about 3 mice a year. I live in the middle of town. Not much prey to speak of. How harmful cats are to the environment depends on the environment. In many cases, it’s absolutely fine to let them go outside.
Clean the litter box daily and move away from clay cat litter. I dont know what it is, but arm and hammer litter has been night and day for me. No dust, far far less odor. Litter lasts longer
Tidy cats clay would break apart every time while scooping, quickly ruining the entire batch of litter with urine smell.
I have “the choice”. It is one cute choice.
