That’s why they’ve developed a line of natural wood and paper litters with distinct features that address what is important to them…and you too. The Many Benefits of Natural Cat Litters Clay litter still accounts for more than five billion pounds of mined clay annually. Because it’s not biodegradable, it clogs up landfills, a situation that causes much environmental concern. Learn how to #bebetterthanclay. In contrast, natural litters are biodegradable and compostable. Products like the ökocat wood and paper litters are also lightweight and user-friendly and their usage can significantly reduce a cat’s carbon paw print over her lifetime. Natural litters are virtually dust-free and don’t contain any chemical odor-masking agents and fragrances that are often found in clay products and believed to trigger or irritate asthma and other respiratory issues in both cats and humans. And, from a feline standpoint, because cats have such a keen sense of smell, some are “‘turned off” by scented litters, and this could lead to litter box avoidance issues. While there is a strong movement to ban declawing cats, there are still cats around that have been declawed. Often they have trouble scratching in harder types of litter and adapt better to natural, soft formulas. As the janitor of your cat’s litter box, hygiene and odor control are key concerns. Natural wood and paper materials are very absorbent and rely on natural plant fibers to trap odors so they can't escape and evade the home. Easy Tips for Transitioning To a New Cat Litter They all know cats can by very finicky and getting them to use a new cat litter may not be easy. The best way to transition to a different litter is to do it over a period of a week to ten days by adding small amounts of the new litter to the old until you have transitioned over completely. This way, most cats will adapt without incident. Fill the clean, empty cat litter box with 2” of ökocat 100% natural litter Pour 1” of the old litter on top Let your cat mix the litters as they are used Next time you clean the litter box entirely, fill more of the new ökocat litter with less of the old on top until your cat has adjusted to the change If you have had issues with litter box avoidance, allow your cat to “audition” litters by simultaneously putting down three or four boxes with different litters in each one and see if she prefers one over another. This could be a quick fix for a litter box problem! It’s a good idea to use biodegradable throwaway litter boxes for this exercise. About Healthy Pet People who love pets.
