pit firing fuel question

I've been following the pit-firing posts, but I would like to know if kitty
litter could conceivably be used for fuel. Any health hazards? Please
respond to me personally, as I'm shutting down Clayart over Christmas break,
so I don't have 1,000 messages to read upon my return. (Everyone I know has
one or more cats!)

Thank you.

Brenda,
Which part of the kitty litter do you propose to use as fuel?
