Eco friendly Cat Litter.

Choosing the right cat litter is always important, you can't just choose any old cat litter you like. Cats, like us humans can have allergies and get infections, some litter can cause allergic reacts and infections around their private areas. Odour control is one main thing people look for when buying litter, no one likes their house smelling of cat poop so a good litter that masks that it needed. buying litter with a strong odour can lead to a cat not wanting to use it, so you will have to compromise when it comes to how strong you want the litter to be. Dust can be a big issue, it can irritate both the cat and it's owners, it's messy and annoying. Some people tend to look for a litter that has good clumping power, good clumping means less work, so when scooping the litter out it doesn't take as long, but there have been a number of arguments over how safe clumping litter is as it can swell up, if a kitten or cat eats it then it could be very dangerous. I have put together a list of safe litters that your cats can use:

Friendly natural cat litter- 

It's eco-friendly and has a sweet smelling minty freshness, it is made from British grown straw and offers some great benefits. Using the straw means that it is a renewable byproduct of cereal production, it is lightweight, 3 times more absorbent than traditional litters and clean. it only requires 1cm of litter at the base of the litter try, once it's ready to throw away you can use it as compost or bury it in your garden.

Natural & Clean cat litter-

This litter is very lightweight and can absorb 300% it's weight in liquid (once again be careful with it expanding)it permanently removes the smell of urine. The reason this appeals to cats is because of it's texture and it kind on paws, this litter cannot sustain life, it will not attract pests like rodents and insects. it's flushable and compostable which makes it easy to dispose of.

Wood Pellet-

This is the litter me and my family used, we have used it for about 6 years now and it's perfect for the cats, it is made from 100% biodegradable wood and is highly absorbent and effective with controlling odours. It's enviromentally friendly which is processed and pelletised with no additives or glues, it has a natural pine scent which keeps the litter tray smelling clean and fresh.

Green Cat Litter- 

100% natural litter that instantly absorbs odours, this is another clumping litter it works by the corn and wheat kernels clumping on contact which makes cleaning it out much easier. It is dust free, light weight and economical, it's also very paw friendly and flushable.
