  I have a front bumper on a PintX and love it. Heaps better than the fangs IMO, as the wheels are a bit bigger. But the rear bumper looks.... So just take it off and leave just the front bumper on.

  I mix pine with rice litters and it works great. The rice litter is softer on the paws and the pine is great for oder control. Both work great in a sifting litter box as they are both pellets, just the rice one is smaller than the pine.

  Did you experiment with hole sizes? These 3/8 (9,5mm) holes are abnormally large compared to any cat scoop, many small clumps will be able to pass through. Usually the finest cat scoops with slots have openings of around 2mm and the wider ones are around 4mm slots which I think is already too big. 3mm openings seem ideal for normal fine clumping cat litter, some shaking is still required but it takes out all clumps. For round holes it's around 6 mm diameter, still has less than half the surface area of a 9,5mm hole. You may have chosen large holes to make it easier to lift or to avoid having to drill an enormous amount of holes, however the result seems unhygenic. The sense of smell of cats is 14 times better than that of humans so some care should be taken not to leave anything behind.

  All very good points and overall you guessed it right. But I do still use a hand scoop (not shown) Even though the holes are large, the vast majority of the small clumps that slide through will slide through LAST. The fine grains will glide through first and prevent most of the tiny clumps from going through until the end. The result is a pile of tiny clumps on the very top of the sifted litter. One quick skimming scoop of the hand shovel and they are all gone. Even a cheap dollar store scoop can easily pick up the small clumps off the top. No digging or searching required and still faster and more effective than a hand scoop by itself. The bigger holes are much easier to drill, especially when done imperfectly by hand and they are faster sifting It is very tedious to drill multiple holes. If I could have this invention made the way I imagine, the holes would perfectly spaced to improve the number of holes and they would be a bit smaller to accommodate all clumping litter types. The basket would also fit more flush on the bottom of the bin to eliminate gaps. The bin would have rounded or angled corners for easier tilting... but alas, all I can do is a cheap DIY because no company would invest in my idea. Unfortunately the whole world missed out and is still missing out on the perfected version of this box. 😿 It's such a simple idea. All it is, is a giant basket-like hand scoop that is half the shape of the inside of a litter box with convenient tilting sides. Stupidly simple.

  ​@@Byromie I wrote that comment before doing my scoop project, so recently I drilled about 250x 6mm holes in a plastic 0,6L scoop. To get equal distances attach a marker and pencil together with a rubber band, put the pencil in the first hole and then rotate to draw a circle, drill the next hole on the circle line, insert the pencil in the new hole and draw another circle around it, put the next hole where circle lines intersect, repeat. It's the only way I could come up with to get an even coverage across a curved surface. The distance between hole centers is 9mm, considering the scoop is 3mm hard plastic I could have went for 8mm distance. I did holes in 3 steps, first punch with sharp tool, then 2mm drill and then 6mm drill, it was a ton of work. My 0,6L scoop holds about 4x the amount of litter compared to a typical small scoop yet requires the same amount of shaking, this is a big improvement but eventually I might go from 6mm holes (28mm²) to 6,5mm (33mm²) or 7mm (38mm²) holes to reduce shaking. Since shaking is less desired with your design, if anyone wants to try with the smallest holes possible I would start with 7 mm holes, better make holes too small initially then too big. It would not be fun at all to make but you could get a result where you don't need to hand shovel after, so eventually it should save time. Perfect hole size will depend on the litter so do some testing before you commit.

  @onesixtyofficial Wow. That sounds like some dedicated work and planning. Thanks for sharing. Hope it works great for you in the end. Its amazing how much testing and thought can go into hole size and placement. A final manufactured design (if it ever happens) would need to test with multiple litters and then pick something a bit on the larger size over the average or median

  Beware of the Pretty Litter company. I contacted them for "a free trial bag" following a referral and the screen went directly to an order page, ignoring the "free trial" (on a Saturday) and I placed an order anyway. I waited until Monday (two days later) for advice regarding "the free trial offer." I could not access my new account. I thought by phoning "customer service" the matter could be resolved. It was not. After much wasted time, I phoned them again, this time to cancel my order and request a refund. The order still hadn't been shipped from their warehouse and yet this company refused to cancel my order. I must receive it, then request a shipping label to return it. I feel that I've been scammed.

  Thanks for sharing. Hope you heal up well. The system does work really well. My basket scoop finally broke a while back and I haven't made a new one yet. But I still use the tilting method to expose the clumps and poop and scoop with a large metal scoop. Tilt and sift is definitely the way to go regardless of the scoop size. Drilling so many holes to make the basket scooper/sifter is kind of a back breaker just as a warning. Good luck

  If your cat won't use the wood pellets or won't bury their poop in the wood pellets all is not lost. What you need is two of the same size litter boxes. Drill holes into the bottom of one box. This will be a sifting box or buy a sifting box. The Arm and Hammer sifting box I hear works real well. Poor wood pellets a few inches deep into the litter box that does not have holes in it. Then place a stainless steel fine wire mesh on top of the pellets and then place the sifting box on top of that. In the sifting box you are not going to put wood pellets but sawdust made from the wood pellets. The sawdust should be 1 to 3 inches deep. Cats love the soft sawdust to poop and pee in as much as clay litter so they will probably take to it right away. What will happen is when they pee the pees will go right rough the sawdust and through the bottom of the box through the fine stainless steel micro mesh and into the wood pellets below. You can scoop out the poop just like clay litter. Then once every other day or so dump out the sawdust from the top box and any sawdust that collected on the wire mesh. Place the wire mesh and top sifting box back on top of the wood pellets and add fresh sawdust. Once a week or so sift the bottom box contents through the top sifter box and throw out the sawdust made from the pee. Add some fresh pellets and place the wire mesh and sifting box back on top and add sawdust to the top sifting box. I use size 20 Mesh Stainless Steel Mesh Screen. I ran a bead of hot glue around the edges so not to get cut while handling it in the future. You can make your sawdust by pouring water over some wood pellets and the spreading the sawdust out to dry or use a meet grinder set to the coarsest setting to grind the pellets back into sawdust. Feed the pellets through the grinder slowly. Do not dry wet sawdust in the oven. You will regret it. All food and liquid near the oven or kitchen will taste like sawdust. Anything you bake in that oven will taste like sawdust till you scrub the oven clean with dish soap and water. Believe me I know. I done it.

  This may not work for people with just one or two cats (or may not be cost effective) but I've found (most of) our cats prefer clay litter for #2 and pine pellets for #1 -- still a decent time and $ saver to have some of both litter boxes available. Cat behaviorists suggest 1 box for each cat PLUS 1 'extra'. Example 5 cats = 6 boxes.

  Inhalation and consumption seem to be the main concerns for silica gel whether it's warranted or not. However, the scent that is added might be more of a potential skin irritant?

  Agreed, my kitties try to cover their poop with the regular sized Skoon, and its hard for them to, so it barely helps with odor elimination. They do have a fine grain but odor wise wasn't much better. Skoon is veeery dusty, when you pour it, its a giant cloud. And when I clean my boxes the lids are covered in dust where they bury/play in it. Tracing wise, it doesn't track anywhere in the house except at the kitty box entrance which isn't bad at all. Overall what killed it for me was the odor, it covered their pee smell but when one of my kitties pooped the smell would hit you even in the next room. I'm going to try Pretty Litter next.

  So I've been using skoon for 4 months. I've tried their fine grade, regular size, and lavender scented Skoon. The lavender scent does slightly better odor control then the regular scent, but still not the best. Pee absorption wise skoon both fine or regular grain does awesome. You should definitely give it a stir daily when you shift it. Its is expensive though. I have 2 cat boxes, 1 bag if skoon lasts me a month, 1 half of the bag fills each of my boxes enough and lasts for 2 weeks before I like to dump and refresh. Over all with Skoon, I really like the fine grain, however I wish they offered the fine grain with scented option, but they don't. I don't hate Skoon, but I'm going to adventure to Pretty Litter and compare if it does better.
