If this is clumping cat litter, I'd be extremely careful. Not to frighten you, but a little research on clumping cat litter will find instances where whole litters of kittens have been lost by ingesting clumping cat litter. I had a kitty diagnosed with stomatitis, said to be incurable except ripping out all the teeth. Since this kitty never went outdoors...her choice...it had to be indoor environmental and I got suspicious of why and how it clumps. I wondered if it was sticking to teeth, gums, down in the gums in 'pockets,' etc. That was how I found the issues...researching clumping litter. As a test, I removed all clumping cat litter from my house and the condition went completely away. Yes, I'd be real careful with clumping cat litter...I'd prevent a Yorkie from eating any...ever. I'd not want a blockage because enough was ingested and clumped too large to pass. I still have cats, but my Yorkies don't bother with the litter boxes regardless of what's in there.
Oh, and I'm sorry...I forgot to say Hi, and welcome. Your Chewie is a cutie!
