I let my db play in it as soon as he could sit up. I know some people are crazy about it, but I figure they get exposed to germs everywhere. [ Reply | More ]

It depends on the Park and the playground. Most in Central and Riverside are in pretty good shape. I never had a problem with DD playing in them. Some people freak out about it, but I'm not a germophobe. [ Reply | More ]

They are scooped more frequently than most litter pans but the cats which use them are ferrule so the waste is dirtier. That said, I let my kids play in them all the time. [ Reply | More ]

just let them play in it - the more germs they are exposed to the stronger their immune system will be (and that includes strength against asthma and allergies) [ Reply | More ]
