Do you have a good solution for the smell? I recently switched to wood pellets and I swear I can't enter the room if my cat has recently used the box.

Yeah it's #2 I have the problem with. If I'm not there when it happens the smell diffuses out into the house and lingers even once the source is disposed of. I think half the problem is my cats make no attempt to bury it with the pellets where before with the litter they would entirely cover it. I'm surprised to hear people had problems with smell with clay litter, never noticed it myself. It was the dust that drove me to switch (plus cost and environmental stuff, but if I'm being honest the dust is what finally got me to research alternatives)

This is probably on the right track, but just wanted to add a little detail. Elastic deformation is when something fully springs back to its original shape. Plastic deformation has some spring back, but some portion of the deformation remains after the force is removed. Unless of course you bend it to the point of breaking. I'd imagine that means that in the brittle zone in the image there's virtually no deformation, just force applied until a break occurs.

Can't wait to see if the negroni encased in a giant fake ice cube was the climax of that bit or if there's something even more delightfully unhinged waiting for us.
