[Connah'sMommy]

Pixie goes in her litter just fine but the prob we are having is with the liners/newspaper.
I bought liners to put in then litter but she rips them so a friend suggested newspaper....so ok,tried that which is better but when she has been and she buries her poop/wee she pulls the paper allover is this just something that happens or am i doing something wrong?xxx

It's something that just happens Hon

I get round it by using newspaper just on the bottom of a DEEP litter tray and putting a similarly deep layer of clumping litter in (about 3 inches). I use those covered litter trays with a cat flap in the front and just remove the cat flap for little kitties .... then I just remove the soiled litter twice daily and top up, then do a complete change twice a week. The covered tray means that litter doesn't flick everywhere and the depth of litter stops the paper being made too wet and/or being raked up by the cats.

I once got liners, but soon discovered, there is no point in using them. The cat just scratches around to bury it's business and the liner gets all ripped!? They seem pretty useless to me.
We put newspaper around under the litter tray as sometimes they fling it everywhere but nothing in the bottom of the actual litter tray. Sometimes they even scratch the newspaper that is out of the litter tray. It's all really normal.
