How often should I scoop my cat's litter? Do I need to dump it daily?

Question

I’m sorry to continue this way, but needless to say, all my money is going to vet bills. I asked about litter previously (one cat on chemo, two cats not, cannot be separated) and the wonderful person that responded that as long as I’m cleaning the litter regularly, things should be ok. Does that mean scooping the litter? Or throwing out every bit of litter multiple times a day. Obviously with clumping litter I get as much as possible when I scoop but I can’t guarantee I get 100% of it.

I'm not the person who responded originally, but I'd say it should be fine to just scoop the litter 1-2 times daily to keep things clean. As far as dumping and cleaning the entire pan, I would try to do this once a month if possible.
