I have a bag of this litter and don't see anything about it being compostable. That would be great. Is it really?

Do you mean you want to add it to your compost pile for gardening? It is made from corn so I suppose it is possible but I wouldn't want used cat litter in my compost pile.

The bags I have purchased recently say it is "flushable", but I just can't see flushing it down my toilet especially since I own my home so I am fully responsible if the sewage backs up. However, it is very light and airy so I really think that it could be flushed safely.

It's a great little composting bin for the first time composter. It can take a while depending on how you care for it. It definitely allows for breakdown if you turn it regularly and water it regularly. I put every stray worm I can find in there too to help out the process. I didn't have compost material after using it for 4 months but have had this for about a year now and have compost material for our garden this Spring.

Not composted or pickled. It's just temporary storage prior to taking somewhere else (compost bin, etc.). It only holds about a gallon of waste.

I never flush the used litter. I just bag it up and toss it. I honestly can't answer your question. Perhaps call the manufacturer and inquire about it with them.

To be honest. I am usure of if it's wild or farm raised, and I just finished a bag and sent it to be recycled, so I can't look at the bag to tell you. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

For some context, in big question is temperature. It sounds like these bags require a hot pile to degrade. A "hot" compost pile (>160F) requires approx a cubic yard of material plus frequent turning or good air suplly, to get that hot. That's more material (and work!) than most people / households have available.

You can take all the household organic waste and dump it in this bin. It will turn into compost eventually. It takes some time, depending on the weather. The warmer the weather the faster it will happen. It goes slow or dormant during winter. I think it should take one full cycle. Then you scoop it out from the window in the lower part and put it in your garden.

It appears to be composting just fine. My bin is full from veggie scraps all winter and froze a little but appears to be heating up again. I plan to order another one so one can be filling as the other gets done. I expect the process will go quicker in the summer. I like these bins. Sturdy and simple. Mine also smells a little, which I thought was natural, but apparently my ratio between "green & brown" is off.

Yes but it is too expensive to do that. It is a starter so it has the bacteria in it to foster the growth of good organisms to convert organic matter into compost.

I checked the box and there was no mention of it being biodegradable. You can check their web site. www.MuttMitt.com

We take it outside every day, to our composter. This bin is just for scraps, like salad -type things. Lettuce, etc. Apple peelings, potato peels, etc. Also we put the coffee grinds and filter in the compost. I bought it because it doesn't stink unless you open the lid. We wash it out every day, after we dump the contents into the outdoor composter.

no, it's not biodegradable. :( that is my only guilt---i try to offset my use of plastics in other ways. Since i have used biodegradable bags before, they are great but it does add up with costs.

It's cellophane. I'm using it to make gift baskets. It's better then the small basket bags. I'm not sure if it's compostable. I doubt it tho

I don't about bpa breakdown, but I do know that newspaper is A-ok to put in your compost. the biggest problem with putting used litter in the compost is the feces. I do know that cat feces is not recommended I don't know about any other animals. Specially considering cow poop is ok to put in. But I use my litter for ferrets. I do not compost it. But I come post everything else. Hope this helps

The universal rule of composting is that if it smells bad, then you're doing it wrong. As long as oxygen can get to all the contents, nothing will ever rot.

You can buy corn based home compostable liners that fit pretty much any compost bin. Also, you can make one out of newspaper. And just one note, the point of a compost pail is to compost and make good soil for a garden, not to throw it in the trash. Regular plastic bags don't break down so basically whatever is in them is mumified for eternity. Composting eliminates waste and makes yummy plant food.

No, I read that somewhere, probably on their website. The good thing is they last for about a month or so without needing to be changed. I add an extra handful every week or so if it looks low, sometimes they cling to the waste when you scoop it out. A million times better than regular litter!
