OK to bury cat droppings?
"Broadback" wrote in message ... K wrote: Chris ] writes Is it OK to bury cat droppings? Well, (some) cats do ;-) The theory is that the closer the digestive system is to ours, the more likely it is that the faeces will carry organisms that are a problem to us. So herbivore faeces are no problem, and we happily use horse manure on the garden. Human faeces are potentially a problem (though still used, I believe, in some parts of the world). Dogs and cats are carnivores, and probably not a good idea to use their faeces in bulk. Also, if it's come from a litter tray, the litter is basically clay and not particularly useful to your soil. I am very surprised that no one had suggested burying the cat might be more efficacious. We have buried six in our garden and there has been no noticable difference! -- Please reply to group,emails to designated address are never read. |

If your own cats don't 'use' your garden, then an incoming cat *will*. At least you know you've wormed your own cats. Spider |
