Breeder Celect Recycled Paper Cat Litter, 30L (Pack of 1)

Product Information

How often do I need to change paper cat litter? – Paper cat litter should be scooped at least once a day and changed completely about once a week. Paper litter needs to be changed more frequently than traditional litters, unless it is a clumping formula. If you’re using clumping paper litter, you can change it once every two weeks or so. Dried wood chips, shavings, sawdust, or animal bedding (cedar, pine, etc.), but avoid fresh cedar as it contains natural phenol oils that are toxic for cats Plant fibre cat litter - arguably the most sustainable option, made from a wide variety of natural waste products, from corn or wheat fibres to peanut shells. All are dried out, combined and compressed into granules or pellets. But even without the risk of plumbing problems, it’s still a negative for your municipal sewage treatment facility or your septic system. For your city’s system to treat what you flush, they’ll need to separate the cat litter solids and send them to the landfill anyway. By skipping the flush, you’re saving them the trouble and reducing the sediments sent to the treatment plant.

We're afraid it's up to you to tempt/bribe your cat into liking the one that best fits your time, needs and budget. What is cat litter made of? Pellet size: It’s not often that a paper cat litter will work in a mechanical litter box because the pellets are too large. However, there are a few paper choices that have thinner, shorter pellets. Multi-purpose: Have pets other than cats, like gerbils or rabbits? You can use paper litter in their enclosures too! We filled sealed containers with as much cat litter as we could and weighed them to see how much you'd need to use to fill up the same size space. The more you need to use, the more frequently you'll need to buy more. Clumping:Paper cat litters aren’t typically formulated for clumping, but the option does exist. If you want a clumping paper litter, your options will be narrowed significantly.

Site Stuff

Environmentally-friendly:When you use paper litter, you are reducing your ecological footprint and helping to save the environment. Less trees are harvested when you use a biodegradable paper litter. You can help reduce the treacherous amount of clay litter that clogs up landfills every single year. Like our other paper cat litter choices, this one is dust free and great for sensitive cats. The recycled paper formula will absorb odors naturally, and we like that it’s effectively absorbent. We also recommend this litter for other small animals in your home, including rabbits, guinea pigs and ferrets. We placed feline urine on each cat litter and stood at set distances from it to see if we could detect any unpleasant smells.

When scooping, the clumps stay firmly together for disposal in the trash where the litter will eventually begin to disintegrate. The particles of this litter are bigger than traditional sand-like cat litter, so you may find that the pieces don’t fall through the slots of your scoop as easily. An added bonus is that Naturally Fresh is manufactured in a 100% solar-powered plant. Because walnut litters are not as common as clay-based litters, you may not find them in all stores. All the selections on our list produce little to no dust. Traditional cat litter produces a cloud of dust when pouring which can aggravate respiratory issues and allergies. All of the eco-friendly cat litter on our list is fragrance-free. A fragrance is often added to cat litter to help it appeal to humans, not cats. The fragrance, which typically makes litter smell like laundry detergent, is produced via manmade chemicals. On the other hand, odor masking and absorption are beneficial for both felines and people. It keeps the litter box ready for use and it keeps the stench of poop and pee away from everyone’s nose.

How can I reuse or recycle cat litter?

What can I add to paper litter to control odor? –If your cat enjoys their paper litter and you clean it frequently but there’s still an unpleasant odor, you can consider adding some baking soda directly to the litter box. This will help neutralize urine odors without harming your cat. Baking soda is non-toxic. Fresh News claims to be almost three times more absorbent than clay litters, so it lasts longer. The soft, dust- and allergen-free pellets retain their form when they get wet but they don’t clump so you’ll need to change it more often than clumping litter.

Most cat litters will mention whether or not they are flushable. But the truth is, if you can avoid it, it’s better if you don’t flush your cat litter. Flushable cat litters don’t expand as much as non-flushable types. Both kinds are capable of clogging your pipes if you ignore their specific flushing directions. Environmentally friendly: If you’re concerned about the environment, this is definitely the litter for you. Paper litter is usually made from recycled materials. It is also biodegradable, so it breaks down and won’t contribute to landfill waste. The Breeder Celect Recycled Paper Cat Litter is made from 99% recycled paper and has no added chemicals or additives. It is a brilliant highly absorbent cat litter that includes a natural odour control. Overall Best Paper Cat Litter: Okocat is our favorite paper cat litter. The pellets are firm on the outside, yet soft on the inside, allowing for maximum absorbency. Along with Okocat’s Odor Shield Technology, the design of the pellets will absorb liquid and odor for a pleasant cat litter box experience. Odors will be controlled for up to seven days with this patented system. Okocat paper cat litter is dust free, which is important for any cat’s respiratory health. If the poo is, well, perfectly contained, then it’s less of a problem because it can be disposed of separately and the absorbed urine might actually help your compost heap because it’s nitrogen based. Just be careful to keep the heap balanced with other materials if you want it to breakdown in a reasonable time-frame.My wife runs a boarding cattery & we get loads of wood litter waste. I have converted our 4 bed house to operate totally on wood. I ripped out the central heating & we have a solid fuel rayburn in the kitchen, for cooking, heat & hot water. A large wood burning villager stove with outside chimney is in the lounge & burns wood also. No rads at all. Any other thoughts? Anyone know if the clay-based ones be used as aggregate in concrete or anything like that?
