Which cat litter is best?


There are so many to choose from nowadays and they all sound like they're really good, but they arent always are they

What do you use, and why?

Viv

PS, sorry if this has been done before.

Re: Which cat litter is best?


Hi I use Catsan seems to work, stays non smelly. Mind you it is changed completely every other day, and is cleaned of "solids" as soon as they arrive.
It is also only used by one elderly cat and she goes outside sometimes too. So not in constant use.
The only other cat litter I've used is "Thomas" and that was many many many years ago.

I use Adsa's own lightweight litter. Have tried many others but really like this one and it's very reasonably priced

Catsan for me. The clumping kind. Did use cheaper stuff before, but it didnt work out cheaper in the end as you have to change it more often.

Re: Which cat litter is best?


Thanks for the link Mags
Interesting to see that even with all these new-fangled cat litters around it still seems to be the same ones people recommend
I've been using the fullers earth one from Lidl with no problem, but I like the idea of being able to fluch the worlds best one, I might give it a try.

Also need to upgrade to a covered tray as angel is a bit handy with her covering up and I keep getting little bits of litter stuck to my feet
I tried litter tray liners once, what a waste of time that was, she just clawed huge holes in them

Re: Which cat litter is best?


I use "World's best cat-litter". Not the cheapest, but good value to me. It's made from corn, smells naturally nice even when used, fairly absorbent - clumps well, flushable and bio-degradeable. Slight tracking-problem, but that will be Rover's fault more than the sand. He loves to swim in the stuff. He goes for a couple of honest-to-goodness breast-stroke laps when I've just changed it. Sure he would follow that with back-stroke, if his shoulders allowed for that sort of thing. (Marking the tray with scent from his paw-pads, perhaps?)
Think I've got a baby bag somewhere, if you want to try it.
