| Buddah had to get up close and personal |
Yep, the doods at
World’s Best Cat Litter emailed with an offer to give some of
their litter a try; at first I was like, Ummmmmm, because I’ve tried new
litters before and it hasn’t gone well, but after some consideration I decided
what the heck. Why not? And there was always the chance that even if I didn’t
like it, Buddah would.
So once the litter arrived, the Woman dutifully mixed a
little in with my normal litter; it was good timing because that was right
about the time the People decided I needed a way bigger box to accommodate my incredible
quantity of awesome, so she the old box with the mixed litter close to the new
box with my regular litter.
Well. You can kind of guess how it went. I do not like
change, not at all. So here I was with my old box with new stuff in it, and the
old stuff in a new box, and doods, WHERE WAS I GOING TO PEE? I wanted my old
box with my old litter in the usual spot where I would probably wind up with my
butt hanging over the edge of the box and peeing on the floor THE WAY GOD
INTENDED.

| Pick? HOW CAN I PICK??!?! |
I did not know what to do*, and the Woman was all, “Oh just
pick one” and Buddah was like “Wheeee!” because he’s not always all there, you
know.
He freaking PLAYED with the new litter at first. Don’t ask
me why, I have no idea. But after he decided it wasn’t the World’s Best TOY he
decided to pee in it. And then he declared it Perfectly Acceptable, though
there was a little disappointment in that he didn’t track it all through the
house after he got out.
Yeah, it doesn’t dust up in an aromatic cloud of Eau de
Litter the way we wanted.
Well…I couldn’t let Buddah Pest have all the glory. While I was
using the new box and found it quite roomy, I decided I better give the World’s
Best Litter a fair shake...so when I thought no one was looking, I climbed into
the old little box and gave it a whiz. But…it turned out someone was looking and the Man totally caught me using it.
And then I used it again.
And again.

Doods, this litter is pretty freaking sweet. I mean, it’s
not perfect. I enjoy tracking my litter out of the box and leaving piles of it
in the laundry room, up the hall, and then on the coffee table or fake fireplace where I go the
wipe the last of it off my feet. This not only assures I have clean tootsies,
but it gives the Woman something to complain about and then clean up. And trust
me, people love to be needed, and cleaning up after me? She needs that. She
even says so while she’s doing it. “Oh thanks, like I needed to get up and wipe
your paw prints up.”
See?
In the box, the litter works just fine. I even managed a
good, hard power-whiz and it didn’t break into tiny flacks that splattered up
onto the wall. Trust me, I tried. It just clumped the way litter should clump,
and when the Woman went to scoop she said it cleans out of the box really easy.
And easy is important when your people are basically lazy. Which means…most
people need it to be easy.
One of the things I worried about when I said I would try it
was the smell. The Woman has scent-induced reactive airway issues; perfumes and
the like make her cough, and then make it hard for her to breath, so this was a
concern. After all, it does me no good if she ends up passing out because she
can’t breathe. She passes out, and there’s no one there to open cans of gooshy
food for me until the Man wakes up. But this stuff doesn’t have a really strong
odor, even after some Max-sized deposits are made onto it.
All in all, I give it two paws up.
Now here’s the thing you might like. I can have them send a
bag to someone. So the fair way to do it is for you to leave a comment—it can
be about anything, say you want to win, or you think I’m pretty; anything nice—and
on Saturday I’ll count the number of comments and run the numbers through a
random generator; whoever’s comment falls under the generated number will win a
bag of World’s Best Kitty Litter. Be sure I’ll be able to contact you to get
your snail mail address, and that you’re cool with me passing it on to the
Litter People.
*Yeah…I was supposed to review this by July 22nd,
but that’s how long it took me to get with the program and use it long enough
to give it a fair review. IT’S NOT MY FAULT! I’M PARTICULAR!
