So curious if anyone has any tips regarding this. We have our cat litter in the washroom of the house. The current cat sand we use has a distinct smell. While we are experimenting with different types of sand, they all, so far, have some sort of smell to them. Obviously it will also smell extra bad whenever the cats use the litter box. While we do remove the litter as soon as possible, we are curious if there are ways to at least mask the smell of the sand with something else... Anyone got any tips?

We use a "flushable" clumping corn-based litter. We don't actually flush the clumps of litter, that's a recipe for disaster. But it does mean I can scoop poops directly into the toilet and flush them. (My cat never got the memo on burying poops, but she does warn us when she's going to go, so I can get them right away.) I scoop the clumps into those little green dogpoop bags, and put those in a lidded can with a liner. It's not perfect but it's not bad. We also discovered our bathroom vent fan just went into the walls, so we had a contractor run a proper vent duct to the outside, made showering in there much better as well.
