It seems there was a hint for something you can get at the Farm and Feed store to use in the place of cat litter, can anyone tell me what it is?

I saved that tip last year: this is a copy from my "Pet Tips" document, where I saved it:
Use Chicken Feed as Kitty Litter
For an outstanding scoopable, clumping, odor controlling cat litter, try using chicken feed or chick starter crumbles. This is available at feed stores and farm and home stores. It costs about $10.00 for a forty pound bag. I kept my old clay scoopable cat litter jugs and pour it into them. One bag will fill five of the twenty pound litter jugs.
We have 38 inside cats and we have cut our litter bill by two thirds. I feel that this does a better job of controlling odor than the clay scented litter. My only recommendation to ease litter box cleaning is a litter scoop called "Litter Lifter" you can find them on a Google search. This scoop is great with any litter, no more shaking the scoop, the clean litter just falls through the scoop. From ThriftyFun.com 12-22-10
38? you are both very brave!
Can this chicken feed be used for kittens? Kittens can eat litter so it can harm them, particularly clumping litter. I just wonder if eating chicken feed would be harmful.
