it doesn’t decompose right, so they say.
The last line on my 649 ticket read “Void Where Prohibited” so I dropped a deuce in the fountain at M’ig M’aw mall. Y’know, they could do a better job of making it clearer that’s not one of your prize options. Now I have to pay a $200.00 dollar fine for telling the lamest joke ever. Shits & Giggles to all my Bitch-buddies. Have a good one.
It’s my understanding that it’s a health issue for the poor souls who sort through and cook up the compost. I know in other cities, they welcome cat shit, used tampons (EW) and stuff, but they’re methods our different than ours. Apparently.
Cat poop…where else does it end up? Do people flush it? Just keep putting it in your compost…how are they going to know….do they sift through it with their hands before dumping it in the truck?
In the end, a majority of the literal shit (feces) is composted, but at the actual dump, not at the composting facilities. So don’t worry about it. They also catch about 60% to 70% of the organic material that’s tossed in the trash too.
If organics just decompose anyway I don’t really see why it’s such an OMGHUGE crime to throw the occasional onion peel in the garbage bin. But maybe that’s just me.
think about what you feed a cat….if it’s not organic going in, it’s not organic coming out.
Just do not put it on the top or the bottom like I do with my dog poop or wrap in a newspaper .
By the way its allowed in PEI
