There was a new sign:

"This sleeping willow is full."

And a map of other locations to try.

FIRE FROM HEAVEN!!!!!!

I will just note that I finally gave in and got a refurbished Litter Robot (because they are $$$), and it has been the best purchase ever/worth every penny. I have a finicky diva and now I just have to empty the bag and replace it like every 3+ weeks (would be sooner with 2, but).
