How it works
The litter used for a full change is multiplied by the number of cats, then scaled to 30 days using the days between changes. Dividing by the weight of one bag gives bags a month, and multiplying by the bag price gives the cost.
Worked example
For 1 cats and a bag priced at $18.00, you use about 0.7 bags bags a month, which costs $12.86.
Questions
How much litter does one full change use?
It depends on the litter and the box. Weigh a full bag, then note how much you add after each full change.
Do clumping and non-clumping litters cost different amounts?
They can. Compare the price per pound of each, then enter the right numbers here.
Does this count daily scooping?
Only if you include it in the amount per change. Scooping is usually a small part of the total.
