I mentioned this to my DD when I saw it reported. She uses Tidy Cats I think. Have you seen any evidence that other brands have raised their prices?

So Clorox fell victim to the same attack as MGM and Caesars. They pay out the ransom to get their systems back and the companies just raise their prices some to still earn a profit. Seems this is just a cost of doing business.

Oh, my! We have one cat who loves it when we change out his litter box. He actually lies down and rolls around in it. He is not going to be happy if now we have to change it less often!

Thank you @Tink3815 for posting this. I bought 2 boxes of our preferred litter (Fresh Step) at Target at regular pricing so I am ok for a while.

I did see my original go-to for litter, Amazon and Chewy, were out of stock!

Always amazing to me how dependent we are on computers that we can no longer do basic manufacturing without them. What happened to the "manual mode?"
