i figure if i have everyone else in the family doing things a bit greener, thomas should join in too, right? about a month or so ago when i was on one of my many errands, picking up thomas some litter was also on the agenda. before picking up the big bag of stuff that i normally get, i spied this bag from arm and hammer and noticed that it was made of 100% biodegradable corn fibers. i was intrigued and figured i'd give it a whirl and see how well it worked in comparison to my usual brand. and the important part – how thomas would react to it.
a month into the experiment, i'm happy to report that everyone seems happy. thomas kind of looked at me like i was crazy when i first put it into his box, but he quickly got used to it. the litter uses baking soda which also means that i haven't noticed any odor whatsoever. instead, it's almost as if there's a "fresh" scent to it it actually makes our basement smell nice. another plus? virtually no tracking. at times, i'd find little pieces of litter from our previous brand on one of the other floors but i haven't noticed any tracking with the arm and hammer brand. and the best part? it's easy to keep clean. better than any other litter i've ever used. it clumps so well that it's easy to keep things nice and tidy and go on my merry way.
at first, i thought the higher than typical price would be a drawback, but with the length of time you can use the litter in comparison, it's a no brainer. this was an easy switch for our family. even if thomas and i are pretty much the only ones the wiser about it.
