Everything Mollie needs to relax and have a good time.

Bathroom/Grooming
Everything Mollie needs for when nature calls. Because she's got long hair, cat litter is always non-clumping.
This is the cat litter Mollie likes best. It smells like pine and never ammonia, and it's non-clumping, very important to keep Mollie's long hair from tangling. The litter doesn't make dust, although the pellets naturally disintegrate as Mollie steps...
Feline Pine Original Non-Clumping Wood Cat Litter
When I've had to use clay non-clumping litter for Mollie, she likes Fresh Step the best. It has good smell control and doesn't get her hair matted. Not much dust, too.

Fresh Step Cat Litter
Mollie loves to scratch in her cat pan, and these are the only liners I've found that don't roll up from the sides. The elastic under the pan keeps the liner in place, making changing her litter much easier.
