Composting

Cat litter???


Hey y’all, not sure what sub to post to. I compost my food scraps at a community compost facility (my local veg farm) and live in a rental where there’s no trash pickup. We freeze stuff that can’t go to our compost site (pretty much just bones) but… now I have a cat. We bring our garbage twice monthly to a place that doesn’t mind when we throw it in their bin.

But, now I have a cat.

We are on septic and I don’t feel comfortable using “flushable” litter as it is not actually flushable.

Anyone have experience with this? Please advise.

Cat tax included.

    Some people say you can do it if you compost it long enough at high enough temps. I would not risk it

    Non-medicated chick feed is a cheap, effective, and compostable cat litter.

    I wouldn’t compost cat litter, it’s too risky.

    Apologies for the lack of clarity. I am not planning on composting my cat’s shit. I am wondering what people who usually don’t have a lot of smelly garbage (those who compost) do with their cat litter.
