I suppose I just have issues with cats in general and the thought of using
their biproducts as a growth promoter is a bit 'out there' for me. In my
experience, cats *can* be made beneficial to the garden. Simply bury one at
the base of each citrus tree each year and the fruit will be loverley!
That's about the end of their usefulness as I see it and if every Australian
applied that method of gardening, it would be no time before there were no
cats around.. - that has to be good for Australia.

That, of course, is your perogative. One way to look at it is that
folks who have a need for kitty litter are responsible cat owners who
keep their animals inside all or most of the time, avoiding problems
for local wildlife. What's more, such people are trying to dispose of
their cat's liquid waste in an environmentally-friendly way that also
benefits the garden.
