Petco no more

Today I attempted to return kitty litter to Petco and was disappointed that they wouldn't accept it because it had been more than 30 days.

While back I bought some expensive kitty litter made out of corn that is flushable. I have been trying to come up with a method to eliminate plastic bags (from stores) in my home. Mostly I use them to throw away the kitty litter. But with this corn type you can flush it down the toilet. The price for a 30 lb bag was $46, which is personally just outrageous. But, I thought I would give it a try and see what happens.

Let's just say it wasn't accepted by my cats. Instead of using the litter box, they used the floor. Totally disgusting. And this was after I attempted to wean them off of the regular kitty litter by mixing the two together.

At first the answer at Petco was no returns accepted after 30 days. I tried to explain to them that this good earth friendly kitty litter lasts a long time and it took quite awhile to wean the cats off of the old stuff before using it alone. Nope, nothing from the store manager. She called the district manager and he said they'd refund half my money. Well, that'd be fine if I had used half of the product. But considering I hadn't used very much at all I thought that was a bad deal.

My next attempt is to contact the manufacturer and let them know that my cats were dissatisfied with the product. Which is true. And thus so was I because I had to keep cleaning up the mess.
