Frequently Asked Questions
What types of cat litter do you carry?
We offer a variety of cat litter types, including clumping clay, non-clumping clay, crystal, and eco-friendly biodegradable options. Popular brands include Tidy Cats, Arm & Hammer, PetSafe, and Ökocat.
How often should I change my cat's litter?
It is recommended to change your cat's litter every 2-3 weeks, depending on the type used and the number of cats in your household. Regular scooping should be done daily to maintain cleanliness.
Is clumping litter better than non-clumping?
Clumping litter is often preferred for its ease of cleaning, as it forms solid clumps that can be easily scooped out. Non-clumping litter can absorb moisture well but may require more frequent changes.
What safety standards should I look for in cat litter?
Look for cat litters that are ASTM-compliant and free from harmful chemicals. Non-toxic and low-dust formulas are also recommended for the health and safety of both cats and owners.
Can I use cat litter for kittens?
Yes, but it is essential to choose a non-toxic and low-dust litter that is gentle on a kitten's sensitive paws. Non-clumping options are often preferred for younger cats.
How do I introduce my cat to a new type of litter?
Introduce new litter gradually by mixing it with the old litter. Start with a small amount of the new litter and increase it over a week, allowing your cat to adjust to the new texture and scent.
What is the price range for cat litter?
Cat litter prices vary widely, typically ranging from $5 for small bags to $25 or more for large, premium brands. Bulk options can provide savings for multi-cat households.
How do I dispose of used cat litter?
Always follow the manufacturer's disposal instructions. Most clay litters should be disposed of in the trash, while some biodegradable litters can be composted or disposed of in yard waste.
