Sorry to hear about your friends. How terrible when they are taken so unexpectedly. One minute they are here and the next they are gone.
We are just having our normal weather here w/ rains and clouds and then some sun. Nothing drastic going on here. It's always raining here so no biggy

More storms tonight for us in Cincinnati with 1-2" inches of rain, and the ohio river is going to be 6 feet over flood stage by Thursday.

good flushing is not the word for this rain I looked out at 9 this morning and started to mist out 39 degrees .I just got my water back from cloudy again and now rain again and hard rain too .Don't mind the light rain but these down pours are doing a number on the pond .Oh addy you said the kitty litter was special kitty in red bag right because all it says is 100% clay and just wanted to make sure

Clay I beleive is going to be bentonite. Clay is a form of soil, so it will either work or not and no harm will come if it isn't the right kind.

If you go to wikipedia the the free encyclopedia sight it tells you the difference in clumping and that it is is made of calcium bentonite and that non clumping is made of zeolite, diatomite ,sepiolite or can have quartz or diatomaceous earth sometimes called diatomaceous silica there is a whole story on it but also says it has bentonite clay too confusing
