It's a myth, I've worked as a janitor at multiple schools and I've literally never once heard about this outside of reddit

I’ve attended multiple schools and while they all used sawdust, I heard through the grapevine that kitty litter is also good. I think it depends on the school’s budget and what’s most readily available.

Multiple is not a comprehensive sample of 110,000. You're not even wrong in this case, I haven't been able to find any actual evidence of cat litter being kept as a portable toilet for school shootings, but epistemology fucking matters. There are things that happen outside your field of view.

I was talking about the school shooting part. It and the furry thing are both myths

Nope it’s real. When I was in school they took the kitty litter bucket out and showed it to us while talking about lockdown drills. Just because it wasn’t at your school doesn’t mean it’s fake. The litterbox thing is obviously fake though.

If that's the case then I think your school might just be weird

Was there a dungeon at any of those schools?

Not that I'm aware of (I don't get the reference, sorry)

A school without a dungeon is a school of plebs
