Editor,
Dog owners have the ‘blue bags’ offered at dog parks but most cat owners rely on the grocery store plastic bags. With the impending ban, what is a cat owner to do? ‘’Plastic Bag Ban Bad News for Pet Owners ?’’, Feb. 17)
This is rather a pressing issue for many people. “Can’t you just use paper bags?” a solution recently put to me. Paper bags from where? While I’m not trivializing the ban and my concern may seem unimportant, to many people the fact remains it is a concern. Perhaps the makers of the blue bags can be induced to provide them for cats as well?
Thank you,

Suzi are you talking about a bag to pick up cat poop or for emptying a cat litter tray?
Dog poop bags will work just fine for picking you cat poop, but all the cats I have had dug a hole a bury it. I would just leave it buried.
For a litter tray, pet stores sell plastic bag liners for the trays.
Also Coast Hardware and Ganahl Lumber sell a range of biodegradable bags.
