I use brown grocery bags to line my litter box because they are absorbent, just the right size and resistant to tearing when my cats art trying to cover their accomplishment. The bags are readily available and CHEAP, so I change them every other day. When I change bags, I put about a quarter of a box of baking soda in before I put the litter back in. I have no problem with odor. I use Tidy Cat III. Cats can be real sensitive to the litter you use. Mine definately do NOT like it if I try to change brands. I take it as real compliment when visitors comment that they are surprised that I have cats because the house doesn't smell like it. To me, nothing is worse than walking into a house and smelling the litter box.
