🐈 Cat Mamas! I need guidance
My cat is almost 1 year old. He's a Maine Coon and we got him from a breeder when he was 12 weeks old. He has always been an AMAZING cat, with 1 big flaw. I REALLY wanted him to use pine pellet for his litter and he did fine with it! Except he refused to poop in it and would always go inside of it to pee and then come out and poop on the floor right in front of it. Honestly, while it was inconvenient, it didn't really bother me too much because it was easy to pop it in the toilet, spray, and clean up when he did it. My husband, on the other hand, got pissed finding a cat turd on the floor every morning when he was getting ready to go to work. So, after trying EVERYTHING we finally switched his litter to actual clumping litter and now, he is magically using the litterbox for everything! Magic! Except I HATE the litter. He tracks it EVERYWHERE (something the pine pellets didn't do) and it's a pain in the butt to clean from the litterbox! IT takes me literally 10x longer to clean the litterbox now and I feel like i'm sweeping cat litter off the floor at least 3 times a day. So, give me all the litterbox hacks! Either, how can I get my damn cat to poop in pine pellets OR how do I make cleaning the litterbox and maintaining the litter instead of my bathroom feeling like a sandy beach? I'm almost about to tell my husband to just either deal with the cat poop on the floor or he's going to have to start cleaning the litterbox himself 😆 *pic of the cat in question so you can see how insanely cute and handsome he is
