Baimor Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Just quick one ( ooh err missus!! ) Has anyone ever heard of using cat litter ( unused obviously!!) as ballast?? I'm sure I read it somewhere but can't find where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQ Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I'm not fighting the cat for it!!!!! Her litter isn't suitable any way its like long crumbly sticks . Many litters are dried clay based which means if you try to glue it down it'll mush up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbob Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Not heard of cat litter being used, its a bit corse and designed to soak up liquid so may not be any use outside. I belive old school modelers used to use budgie seed, again unless you want to feed the birds not much use outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baimor Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks guys. Our cat uses a product called Catsan. It's quite small and doesn't go mushy when wet. I don't blame you not wanting to fight the cat Q! Ours is a house cat and doesn't go out ( Er indoors thinks he'll get pinched!! He's a pedigree Ragdoll ) but he's still a handful when he's " on one"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbob Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 A cheaper alternitive may be Spill Dry, the stuff used by garages to soak up oil. Its the same stuff as cat litter and may be cheaper. Was told by the distributor once that they used the same stuff in differant bags and differant prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semaphore54 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I have enough trouble with the local cats using our garden as a toilet, I wouldn't like to encourage them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
