I have been looking for a good grinder that I could use to pulverize pills for my cat. All of the standard pill grinders don't work at all.

Usually mulch type and like previous emailer firepit ashes are good and to keep moist...... However I have purchased 3 of these and none of them have produced ANY mushrooms. So I do not know if it was just the supplier or what but the gifts are gave were useless gifts. Had High hopes but turned out to be a NOTHING.

Kind of, I was hoping..the grind is really good but the static can drive you crazy. If you find something that works, let me know. You really need to clean it out with each use.

I don't use it anymore because my cat died after 18 yrs. but I also looked for alternatives and I think anything that doesn't drop through the holes would work. I will be looking for an alternative when I get another cat. Love the system, but the pellets are too rough on their paws. I say try it!!

I have multiple cats so find the crystals expensive. I have done a lot of testing with other litters. I have found the clumping litter made from Walnut shells-from Blue works well and another reviewer mentioned the Worlds Best made from corn works for him. You have to play with the amount a bit to have it deep enough to function but not so deep as to hinder the raking motion of the machine. I think the clumping clay type litters might be too heavy to work with the machine. Hope this helps.

I sent the bowl that I had back to the seller. The bowl is glazed on the outside and the upper rim; but, the surface texture is too rough in my opinion. In time, a person my be able to grind down the inner surface to make it smoother. I discovered that I can use one of my Corel dessert plates and the back of a spoon to grind pills very fine. For my purposes, though, the medication doesn't need to be superfine since I'm mixing it with my cat's food. My concern was the same as yours.

Don't bother with the cheap ones. I tried some and they were crappy. You had to put powder in them and it went everywhere and they did not work at all. That is kinda high on the price. I've gotten them at Family Dollar for less, but they do work really well.

I used a battery operated grinder and it handled it just fine, until the grinder pooped out ... but then I used it a LOT. Then I just decided to buy the already ground stuff and I'm much happier. Either way it's quality salt, no additives, no difference in taste or flavor, and no grinding!

I've been working with glass for over 30 years. For grinding glass you want to use a wet grinder. This would not work. regardless of the disk used.

I have used it for years to grind chicken thighs with bones to make raw cat food. Does not work for bones larger than that though.

I purchased this attachment for that purpose, and I DON'T RECOMMEND IT! We are a family of Celic Disease sufferers, so in order to cut costs on grains/flours, I buy many items in bulk and grind them. This thing will NOT work for that. Nor will it work for nuts. The grain/nut paste gets caught in the grinder and cannot push it through the faceplate quickly enough. It ends up pushing the plastic ring casing off its mount and can even snap it. I worried it was also going to burn out the motor. It's really just a disaster.If you are interested in grinding those items, I REALLY recommend investing in a good burr grinder. I have had the best luck with them in grinding grain.

Hello--im not sure this would be the right one for large chunks of pepper. It does fine with the typical peppercorns--and even with those, sometimes i can hear the gears 'pushing through' those. Not that it struggles with regular pepper--but i dont see this model pushing it much further than that. I'd think you would want a manual grinder for that. Hope this helps.

I have had trouble with mine also I would choose another manufacture pepper grinder next time. I also purchased the salt grinder, while both look great it doesn't work well, leaves salt on counter after a grind. For the price was a disappointment.

PetFlow no longer has these either. I am sooo disappointed they stopped making these too. They worked amazingly well with my cat. Now, like others I hope to be able to find another product that works this well.

I would not recommend this grinder for spices. I tried grinding spices and the second time I used it it stopped working completely and I sent it back for a refund.

I first used a whetstone,didn't work very well. Then I tried a premise sharpener. Also didn't work well. Since the metal is so thick and heavy, several folds, I tried a grinder. Worked like a charm!!

I want to grind meat for my cats, and cats don't really like whole raw meaty bones (I bake for them grain-free catnip treats for teeth cleaning). So, I'm also looking then for a grinder that will allow me to grind both meat and bone. Right now my local butcher does it for me, but it's an extra $1/lb for the grinding service... a grinder will pay its own way in just a few months.I did a search of the site and the only grinder on Amazon with reviews that mentioned grinding raw bones was this one - Northern Industrial #12 Electric Meat Grinder.
