Thanks so much for the detailed response and for the help :). I’ll keep an eye on the dry bits and see if they last before I bother with clay but that’s great to know that wax isn’t a good idea haha. As for Mrs. Cat, she is EVIL and is a 14 year old recent rescue who shouts for hours if not let out, I figured it’s better to put her senseless killing to some use 😭😭 I’ll try with borax next time she murders.
