    Default Smelly kitties?

    I though I remembered seeing a thread about something that could be put in cat litter to help with the odor. We have 2 kittens and cleaning the litter box everyday isn't helping, neither is using multiple cats cat litter. They are little poop and pee machines! We had 2 cats before and never had this problem....anyone have any ideas other then me having to actually change the cat litter every single day.

    i use baking soda in the litter, it helps with odors, but i dont know of anything that really works wonders.

    yips had a different type of litter called feline pine that helps with urine, but not too much with the poop smell.

    little pee and poop machines, lol!

    litter makes a huge difference
    I am using maxxy cat and find it better than other brands. It comes in a green bucket and food basics.
    I only feed her good quality dry food also.

    Frequent scooping makes a huge difference I have 4 boxes and I scoop twice a day. I use clay litter from Canadian Tire, and line the boxes with baking soda then add the clay. You cant smell a thing in my house and I have 7 cats.

    I dont really notice a difference between the pet and the normal baking soda.

    I found when my kitties were young (I have 7 cats), they smelled a lot and peed a lot and pooped a lot. Now that they are older, all this stinky stuff has really settled down where you can't tell I have that many cats. I have two giant sized litter boxes, that's it and scoop three times per day to keep on top of things.

    When they were kittens, I found too much canned food really made them smell a lot, especially my boy kitties. Getting good dry food helps a lot too so their poop isn't mushy.

    I found once they were all spayed and neutered, the urine was not as strong, especially the boys.

    But I think it's just like that puppy smell, when they are young, they just smell a lot because they pee and poop a lot.
