Interesting fungoid growth in cat litter box

Don’t have any photos here, but I’ll post some when I get a chance. But it’s really lovely, long black gossamer filaments sprouting upwards. Imagine a sea urchin made of black cat whiskers. Kinda neat.

Anyone else seen anything like this?

I’m no mycologist, but my wife, upon hearing of this growth, demands that you first ensure the continued safety of your poor kitty’s behind, as it is in a particularly vulnerable state when it’s near the fungus.

Cat Litter Fungus

Band n-mmmpppph

Let me be the first to say…

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I am soooo not welcoming these fungal overlords.

Not sure what it is, myself, but this guy seems to have had a similar problem. Do you use organic litter too?
