Cat litter is a relatively common object used to bury feces and urine. It is mainly used for cats. Of course, it is also used by rats and mice. There are many kinds of cat litter currently sold on the market. Choose a variety of cat litter that your cat likes and is more environmentally friendly. It is very important for the cat's physical and mental health. Don't ignore this little bit of sand. It accompanies the cat every day and sometimes determines the cat's happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy.

1. Clumping cat litter, main ingredient: bentonite.

Small particles of white or off-white appearance. Some brands have spherical particles, while others have irregularly shaped particles.

Usage: The highly hygroscopic cat litter quickly absorbs the moisture in the feces and forms a large hard mass. When cleaning cat litter, use a cat litter shovel with holes to scoop out these large and small hard clumps and throw them away. As the cat litter is consumed, the owner can add new cat litter to the litter box at any time.

Advantages: For cats, this kind of cat litter is lighter and feels better on the feet. It is suitable for cats who naturally like to bury themselves. It is easier to clean. Some brands of cat litter are better at absorbing odors. If there are not many cats in the house, cleaning the cat litter every day can basically make it odorless.

Disadvantages: The dust is relatively large. If the cat litter box is placed in the room, a layer of fine white powder will gradually adhere to the surface of the furniture, and the cat will also have an earthy smell. Because the cat litter particles are very small, it is easier to get stuck in the gaps between the cat's toes. The cat will lick away the small sand particles remaining in the gaps between the toes after defecation.

2. Wood powder cat litter, main ingredients: This cat litter product is made of recycled pine wood, paper pulp or wheat by-products, and is a relatively environmentally friendly cat litter product.

Advantages: This kind of cat litter is made of wood chips as the main raw material, supplemented by a small amount of natural binder granulation. It has no dust or very small dust, will not cause air pollution, and has a very strong anti-penetration ability, and has a relatively good clumping and odor absorption functions. Because of its strong adsorption capacity, it consumes less than bentonite cat litter and is more suitable for home use.

Disadvantages There seem to be not many domestic manufacturers capable of producing this kind of environmentally friendly cat litter, so it is still difficult for us to buy it in the current market.

2. Paper cat litter, main ingredients: Some paper cat litter contains activated carbon, and some are made from waste newsprint.

Advantages: Confetti cat litter is soft sand, the size of rice grains. In terms of deodorization, the particle size and hardness of confetti cat litter are similar to those of ordinary mineral sand, so the odor is not easy to escape. The confetti cat litter currently sold on the market generally contains activated carbon, which is also helpful for deodorizing. Because the particles of confetti cat litter are relatively small, the dosage is smaller. Although it does not clump, it will turn gray after peeing, making it easy to identify and easy to remove. And it can be poured into the toilet and flushed, which is relatively simple.

Disadvantages of confetti and cat litterThe clumping force is slightly weaker, and some confetti cat litter can condense when used, but it will turn into a ball of paste.
