Question about environmentally friendly ways to curb companion animals

[SemiCharmedQuark]

Like any responsible pet owner, I curb Mila. But I feel guilty wasting bag after bag, even if they are small. Are there any environmentally friendly bags available for curbing purposes?

Thanks

1. I live in the middle of a corn field, so I'm probably the wrong person to

ask. I usually throw my cat's shit out into the middle of the field. It's good for the corn, and doesn't require a plastic bag like it used to in the city.

I'd be interested to see the answers to this question, though....

2. What to do with the cat poo?

My wife and I were discussing that the other night.

Is the litter that has stuck all over it bad for plants? Can you throw it in the woods (we have woods behind our home), and if you do, will it hurt flora and/or fauna? What about the cat pee in the little litter balls? Does the coating of scoop-able litter act as a protective layer thereby not allowing for decomposition?

So many questions...

What shall we do with the cat poo poo?

3. I keep asking my cats that.

They're incredibly unhelpful on the subject. :D
