Recycle cat litter, seriously?

#1. They went IN HER TRASH to find the used cat litter which isn't even cat litter but shredded paper she used as cat litter.

#2. I've never ever heard of anyone using shredded paper as cat litter.

#3. Recycled cat litter??? What's next, recycled toliet paper?

When I saw that they WANTED her to recycle litter, I thought damn, do they really pay someone to separate litter from cans and bottles? Can you imagine? Do you have any idea just how awful cat piss is?

I think they just wanted her to recycle the paper based on the fact that it was paper. I mean, it's not actually cat litter...it's paper. Although it could be said that she was recycling/repurposing the paper by using it as cat litter.

I'd start emptying the cat box right into the recycle bin.

Or just use the recycling bin as the litter box.

It's a filthy job dealing with regular garbage but cat-urine-soaked newspaper? I wouldn't even want to torture a sanitation worker with that!

Where do most folk in D.C. keep their recycling bin? Will kitty be able to get to it in the garage? Probably not. Next most likely place is the kitchen. If it wasn't for that fact, I would have suggested this lady keep recycling the used paper-litter until the city demands she stop!

You folks are looking at this all wrong! Think of all the jobs that were saved or created so an army of people can go through your trash.

Besides, those are future unionized government workers there.
