In the coming weeks, my kitty testers are having a go at all the eco-friendly cat litter out on the market today. One brand carries an early FLUTD which would be good to have as some of my senior kitties do get frequent UTI’s. The challenge I believe is going to get these kitties to accept a new texture of litter. But, if the product is kinder to the planet and still handles the odors that occur, I am all for it.
Woke up this morning to fog- dense fog in May! For a minute I thought I was back living on PCH and fog was rolling in from Huntington Beach. I wanted to continue to burn our leaves, but there is burn ban for the day. Instead, I will start my set of summer articles for felinexpress that deals with outside cat behavior and spring clean my house. To bad, there isn’t profit in cat fur as I have a ton of it!
We tried the newer kind and they are ok but I did find they weren’t nearly as good at dealing with odors (though that warning system for UTI’s sounds like a great idea). The one thing I would warn you on is to make sure they don’t decide that the litter is a tasty treat – some of the food based ones could look mighty tasty to a cat (I had that fear with ours and did get a little interest but nothing too major). It may depend on the age of the cat – the interested party was our at the time 1 year old (the older didn’t really care and the younger were the ones it was mostly used for since it was what they were used to so they knew it was a potty, not a snack).
