Mankitten Monday

Gabriel here!

A LONG time ago, before I was even here, World's Best Cat Litter asked The Monkeys to review the new lavender-scented litter.  They sent them a bag, and of course they used it and didn't even review it, so I'm here to help them get organized.

By all accounts, it smells amazing and even covers Sweet Pea-powered poop smells!   It must be powerful stuff.  My Daddy says it smells nice, but not overwhelming.  Daddy also loves that it tracks much less than the other corn-based litter we used to use.  It means less of the evil vacuum for us too!

The scented litter is not available in our area of Canada , but Sweet Pea and I use World's Best, so to make up for our late review, Sweet Pea and I will demonstrate how to use the regular version of World's Best Cat Litter.

Uh, Sweet Pea, you're not doing it right...the litter is supposed to be in the box first.

I don't know if Canadian cats do it differently, but where I come from, the litter has to be in before you poop and you're definitely not supposed to sleep in there.

She's not even listening to me, but I need to show everyone how to use this stuff, so I need to do whatever I have to to get Sweet Pea to cooperate.  I hear whispering in a ladycat's ear is supposed to make them do anything!

I guess in the interest of being more like my new Canadian family, I'll try it their way.

Nope!  This isn't right!

Sweet Pea is so stubborn and she's ruining my first review!  I've got to show her how to use the litter properly.



Trying to get Sweet Pea to do something she doesn't want to do is almost impossible!

My review was a flop, but we definitely use and love World's Best Cat Litter.  As soon as the lavender-scented litter is available here, we'll be getting some.  In the meantime I'll keep trying to teach Sweet Pea the proper way to use cat litter!

Mancat Monday

It has been a little under a month since the end of my last treatment of Prednisone for my allergies and so far my itchies haven't come back. Mommy doesn't want to jinx anything, but the one thing that has changed is our litter.




Since we moved last May, we had been using Feline Fresh (a pine-based litter), but our pet store has been out of stock for the last month so Mommy went back to World's Best Cat Litter.


We are hoping and purring that my allergy is to pine and that we have solved the problem because the steroid medication has made me gain 3 whole pounds in a year! I don't mind having a little extra Samson around, but Mommy says it's very unhealthy.




It's tiring having this much extra weight. I think I'll have a nap!

Green Litter

Drew from World's Best Cat Litter sent us another bag of their awesome litter with their new look!



We have to admit that while we love the litter, we haven't been using it since we tested and reviewed it. Our Mom is convinced that the price in Canada, and in particular, the province where we live (Quebec), is way higher than anywhere else.

We tried Feline Fresh Clumping, which is made from pine and we really liked it a lot. Although it was high-quality litter, the price was half the price of World's Best. The smell was great and the clumping was perfect and we both used the litter without any hesitation. The only problem with it was, the little pine particles were so light and small, that we would track it all over the apartment (and Deli ended up with some little pine danglies on her rear floof).

One day, while Mommy was in the grocery store, she decided to check the ingredients of a store brand 'green' litter just to see what made them environmentally friendly. To her surprise, it was made with corncobs, flushable, clumpable and supposedly had great odor control. The price was only $7.49 CDN for 3.2 kg (about 7 pounds), which is 1/3 the price of World's Best and 1/2 the price of Feline Fresh. The brand is President's Choice Green Cat Litter and is available in Canada at all grocery stores that sell the President's Choice line of products. We tried it out and we couldn't be more pleased. It doesn't look the same as World's Best Cat Litter (it's a lot darker), but it works really well, and unless World's Best comes down drastically in price in our area, we'll continue to use it.



Just to be clear, we think the price of World's Best (and a lot of other imported products) in our particular area of Canada is inflated because of import and tax laws, so our opinions are only based on local pricing.

N.B. On the weekend, our Mom went to Ontario to visit her brothers and she found a 3.2 kg bag of World's Best Cat litter for only $9.99(which is far more reasonable considering how long WBCL lasts)! She was so surprised because in Montreal, the same bag is $25.00! This was so shocking to her and she wonders why there are so many more taxes and duties here in Quebec.

Now, just to break up the poop talk, here's a picture of me!

The World's Best Cat Litter

The good people at The World's Best Cat Litter sent us a bag to try out. Mommy filled up our litter box last week with this stuff and we've been doing our best to test it out for her!

Neither of us wanted to be featured on camera actually 'using' the product (I mean, really!), but from our point of view, it's really great because it's not dusty like the other stuff which makes it easier to breathe while we're using the litter. For Samson, that should make a huge difference since he likes to take his time and scratch around (I think he's just enjoying his alone time). I, on the other hand, do not spend much time in there but it is better for my breathing when I have the sniffles.


Here I am thinking about using the litter - Sorry folks, that's where I draw the line.

Mommy says that it is by far, the best litter she's ever used (she uses our litter???) and completely recommends it to anyone. Here are her likes and dislikes about it:

Likes:

Exceptional clumping - She says it's as good as or better than any other clumping litter she's bought.

Flushable - This is the best feature because she doesn't have to worry about using plastic bags to dispose of our poops and she said it's better for the environment that way

Odor control - Excellent!

Health benefits - The dust level is very low so this is excellent for the cat's health

All natural ingredients - It's made from corn.



Dislikes:

Price - This is the only problem with the litter. We don't know how much it is in the US, and maybe a big part of the expense is that it's imported but it's at least 10 times the price of our other clumping litter. Mommy says she may just buy it anyway because of all the benefits, but she hopes the price goes down in the near future.

Have a great Thursday!

International Box Day!

Samson and I are very excited about International Box Day put on by the wonderful people at Zoolatry! We're very happy to participate because, let's face it, boxes rule!

Samson did a very recent post about his quest for the perfect box. He didn't know about box day coming up (or maybe he's psychic!). We won't post those pictures again, but if you want to see it, his post is called Samson and the Three Boxes

I think most of these pictures speak for themselves so here are our best box shots!











Our new friends, Mischa and Pasha, wanted to be involved too so they sent over some of their kitten in boxes pictures!




In keeping with the box theme, we also received a bag of The World's Best Cat Litter to try out in our litter 'box'.



Mommy told us to eat lots of fiber so we can review it (????). She laughed when she said that but I don't know what fiber is... She thinks she's funny.

Have a great Box Day!
