Don't know about any special stoves, but it seems it is the original "bio brick". Wait a second...I just had an entrepreneurial idea!

Too late they already use it in Africa by mixing it with decomposed silage and compress it into biobricks.

Went on week long float trip down the Sabine River between TX and LA just out of high school. Found a hot and sunny sandbar just covered with them. Spent a good amount of time flying those suckers across the river and trying to burn them. Just smoldered but still put out enough heat to cook on.

Maybe those were gator taters?

This thread has gone to Shpoop!
 
Most people round here burn cat litter. Lot more cats poop then cow poop
 
Cat litter is often clay, that won't burn.
 
I think he was referring to the wood pellet litter. ;)
 
Just caught this thread, all joking aside I thought about this idea a couple weeks ago. My grandpa did just that on the farm along with corn cobs to keep the cook stove going during the armistice day blizzard.

I wonder how the cat would handle cow chips ha!

I was also told about corn cobs, though since this winter has been so cold even those are hard to find.
