[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG, don't dump the entire litter box contents into the toilet! That's a great way to end up with thousands of dollars in plumbing bills![/quote]

I do it in stages.[/quote]

Doesn't matter!  Stop![/quote]

No, I won't!!  It's flushable! This is called a modern convenience. This is the best litter we have ever used -- it scoops without TOO much of the clumped part falling free so it remains pretty clean for about a week. Then all the bits that fall between the slots when scooping start to add up and I dump the remaining whole box of litter in the toilet, about three dumps at a time. Let the litter sit in water for a minute or two before flushing to make sure it has expanded.

We have been doing this for years in a really old house, with no problems with the pipes. Best litter ever.[/quote]

Trust me. Litter sticks to the walls of your pipes and builds up like coronary artery disease. It's only a matter of time before a block forms.

You will seriously, seriously regret this.[/quote]

You do know that wipes (for kids and adults) labeled as "flushable" will also clog your pipes? Just because a company markets their product as flushable does not make it true. We had to replace our main sewer line last fall because it was old but in the process I talked to a lot of plumbers and I learned one thing. Nothing other than things that come out of your body and toilet paper should ever be flushed. And that includes kitty litter. You are asking for trouble flushing it. And Draino does terrible things to pipes so don't rely on that to help because you're just adding more trouble.[/quote]
