Product Information

When I use secondary sources, most are those with some authority, such as veterinarian or cat behaviorist books and articles. Grass litters, she said, are consistently among the most dust free of the natural options, though we found in testing that some of the walnut, wood, and grain litters produced equally minimal dust.

This proved true in our testing: My two cats were willing to use the unfamiliar litter only occasionally. Some cats choose to go outside of the litter box simply because they've found an alternative that better satisfies their need to scratch and bury their waste like a pile of dirty laundry or a potted plant. There are a lot of considerations to make when purchasing cat litter, but in our books, there is only one litter that holds up against all 9 important factors that we list out in detail below. If you have a kitten under 8 weeks old, regardless of what kind of cat litter you use, you should keep an eye on them to ensure they’re not ingesting their litter.This one is made from farm-grown wheat and comes recommended by Bosley, especially for cats who are sensitive to scents or dust.

Sawdust can absorb over 400% of its weight in moisture which is why it is used for cattle and pet bedding, this makes it perfect for cat litter. Please note: The packaging has recently been changed so your product could arrive in either the old or the new packaging.This is because moist corn is an ideal breeding ground for aflatoxin mould, if ingested this can be fatal to cats. This means that finding a cat litter that can stay relatively clean is not only a benefit to you, but it’s also something that your cat will appreciate. Processed into a sandy grain, this litter has a satisfyingly scratchable texture, but its light weight results in frequent tracking outside the litter box. If you’re very sensitive to dust (or have a small bathroom where it’s hard to dissipate), consider alternative materials like crystal or grain.

Ahead, you’ll find nine cat litters (plus a litter-box system and a deodorizer) recommended by our panel of experts that should satisfy even the pickiest of feline friends.We choose tofu cat litter as the best cat litter because it can satisfy a variety of different needs. I also considered how easy it was to remove clumps and how much litter ended up tracked onto the floor around the litter pan. Its quartz sand and chalk composition is more eco-friendly than clay, and it’s great at absorbing moisture fast thanks to its super-porous surface. Due to the fact it clumps so urine can easily be removed, walnut litter can go for an entire month (with one cat using one litter box) before it needs to be completely changed.

It might make the litter box easier to clean but it could clog the pipes and wreak havoc on the plumbing if pet parents attempt to dispose of it in the toilet.

Litters that are often praised for tracking and lack of dust production include walnut, pine, and tofu. Septic systems, in particular, were not designed to handle the extra solids from flushable cat litter and can struggle (or fail) to break down in the septic system. Be aware some cats may not react well to having their usual litter type changed, this can be a reason why your cat may freak out when you change their litter. If you’re concerned about this issue, you’ll probably be better off using a different type of litter. Clumping ability and ease of cleaning: In the first phase of testing, I compared a small amount of each litter in matching plastic dishes.
