Is there any reason not to put cat manure in a compost pile?
Yes. Cats sometimes carry some nasty soil-borne diseases, which
can affect humans. On the other hand, cats burying their faeces
in the garden is as much, if not more, of a risk.
Look up Toxocara, Toxoplasmosis etc.

I wonder if a small sand pit could be provided for a cat's use. They would
surely prefer a soft site than a heavier earthy one.
