Amazon fucking sucks for me now. Every fucking purchase (which is getting rare and rarer) I get asked to join prime.
There is no “don’t ask me again”. Every fucking time I have to select “Not now”.
I’ve come close to writing a plugin to help you skip these ads.
Why not avoid amazon completely or as much as possible?
I do, the only thing I buy off Amazon now is Zeolite mineral cat litter pellets. There’s simply no supplier in Canada, but I try sourcing from Ebay first.
It sucks this specific cat litter isn’t more popular. It’s crazy how superior to clay/paper/wood/crystal whatever. Both in annual costs and cleanliness.
I hear ya. Would albertazeolite.ca work?
Unfortunately not, the bonzai tree crush doesn’t allow for urine drainage. I tried already, doesn’t dry out. Needs to be in a pellet form.
Thanks for trying to help though!
I was thinking of their other product which they market as kitty litter, among other uses. https://albertazeolite.ca/products/clinoptilolite-zeolite
Where have they marketed as a litter box product? If they have, I’m much more open to the idea. Searching “litter” on that page had no results.
Im so skeptical because I’m under the impression now that the coarse bonzai tree crush wasn’t coarse enough and hampered air flow significantly leading to urine damp zeolite that didn’t drain into the soak pad underneath the Breeze litter boxes. Or perhaps more accurately: it drains most of it, but some moisture doesn’t evaporate.
This clinoptilolite zeolite looks like an even finer crush, which makes me so doubt it’d work, but I’m just going off my previous layman experience.
In comparison, you can see how large (with a lot of room to breathe, which I’m assuming is the difference which matters, but I could be mistaken) these zeolite cat litter pellets are:

All the competing brands use a similar pellet shape. Edit: although I don’t know if that’s because it’s important or if these companies are all using the same source and just slapping their various labels on it.
The second image has a usage suggestion, maybe that is what they were referring to?
Not like the FTC did much to begin with
The fact that you were unaware of what they do has no bearing on the massive amount of work they actually accomplish.
They make plenty of anti-consumer decisions
Out of curiosity, what do think were the three main things the FTC worked on last year?
And crickets…
Yup. It’s often easier to ignore a question than consider the possibility that we’re mistaken.
