Re: New kitten help!! Eating litter and not food

I know sounds really silly in retrospect, this is my first cat and wasn’t even sure how much litter we’d need so I only wanted to pick up a small bag (was very cheap too!), obvs realised within the first week that I can’t be buying litter in 8L bags so ordered larger bags of another one.
