I also have been thinking a lot about plastic usage. We have always used plastic grocery bags for our used kitty litter. I wanted to get away from this, so after doing a ton of research I decided to compost our kitty litter instead of sending it to the landfill. I follow the same procedures used for "humanure", which can be googled. I did switch from clay based litter to corn and/or wheat, which costs more, but I'm hoping that the cost will go down once the compost is usable (in two years time, and not on veggies). There is a great website which offers completely free instructions on how to build the bin: http://humanurehandbook.com.
Now when I go to the grocery store I can use my reusable bags without saying, "plastic please".
