I'll be the first to say I have in fact used kitty litter.. Worked well enough.
What I can say (and I can't prove this to be fact or fiction) is I used to work in a Wal-Mart type of store here in Michigan in the late 90's/early 2000's and we had a oil spill, so me, being the quick thinker, grabbed a broken open container of kitty litter (since it'd get thrown away anyhow.. can't sell it they said) and used it to soak up the oil.. Worked fine. The next shift I worked our ES&T (or whatever they called em.. store safety people) said to never do that again as certain chemicals that could or could not be in kitty litter (or other items) could increase the risk of "spontaneous combustion" of the spilled oil.
I call BS on it.. Just relaying what I had heard, wonder if anyone else has heard it too? (As I said, I been known to still use it here in the shop now and then)
Oh, and last time I bought oil-dry it was about 5 bucks at my local NAPA (but it was about 6 months ago).. I want to say it was a 80lb bag.
