What is cat litter made of?
You may be wondering, what is cat litter made of? This depends on the type and features of the cat litter, as some contain materials that primarily focus on odour control or absorbency. Whether it’s clay or wood cat litter, there’s a wide range of materials to choose from. You should also consider if you want clumping cat litter to non-clumping cat litter, we’ve got it all! Below, we’ve broken down each new type of cat litter and the benefits of each.

Essential Performance Clumping Litter
Made from natural clay, this cat litter is highly absorbent and urination from your kitty creates easy-to-remove clumps in the litter box. Clumping cat litter is popular as the granules won’t stick to your kitty’s feet either, resulting in a cleaner home! Tip: a cat litter mat is always popular to capture any pesky granules that escape on your cat’s exit.

How often should you change your cat's litter?
Litter trays often require topping up every 1-2 days, and cleaning at least once a week but sometimes more often depending on the state of the tray. You must clean the tray with hot water and a mild household detergent like washing up liquid. Whether you own a large cat litter tray or a small one, they need regular attention. If smell is a major concern, a cat litter tray with a lid is always a useful consideration, like this Savic Nestor Toilet Home!
How to dispose of cat litter
When your cat litter tray is starting to get stinky, it’s time to dispose of it! Cat litter tray liners are a great idea and make cleaning their tray easy peasy. Seal the soiled litter in a plastic bag and dispose of with usual household rubbish! Gloves or disposables are key, and those in vulnerable health, pregnant, nursing or children should not interact with soiled litter. You should never flush cat litter down the toilet, and please don’t add it to your compost as soiled litter can contain bacteria from the cat’s faeces.
