Cat Litter (can it be used on my flower beds)

The cat litter that my cats used is the wood pellet type that soaks up any mess. Once it has been used in the litter tray would it be ok to dig in my flower beds (not veg patch). Has anybody got any info to suggest not to do this? Any help on this would be good I put it in the compost bins, alternating layers with green garden/kitchen waste. Because I understand the micro-organisms that rot sawdust require a lot of nitrogen (more, in my experience, than is present in the used litter if the brown lumps are removed :-) I water the sawdust with dilute nitrogen-rich liquid, and also sprinkle with garden lime as it can otherwise become acid. When I get it right the worms are as happy in the sawdust as anywhere else in the heap, and the whole lot rots down to rich brown stuff. regards sarah -- "Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth."
