Select cat litter according to needs. The same cat litter cannot meet the needs of all cats, so in order to cater to different cats, there are many types of cat litter. Different cat litters also have different characteristics. The owner can choose a suitable cat litter for the cat based on the actual needs of the cat.
1. Crystal cat litter is a translucent silicone particle. It absorbs urine through the small holes covered in the particles, and locks the odor, and the excess water flows to the bottom. Using "crystal sand" requires a double-layer cat litter box, and a diaper pad is placed on the lower layer to absorb excess urine to avoid odor. The advantage of this cat litter is that it has strong deodorization and good absorption power for urine. There is no dust problem under normal use, it will not harm the respiratory tract and cause diseases, and it is not very heavy. The disadvantage is that it cannot wrap the poop well, so you must change the bottom layer of diaper pads frequently, otherwise the bottom layer will easily accumulate cat urine and breed bacteria.
2. The mineral cat litter components are mostly clay and various ores. The gravel can cover feces and condensate into blocks when it encounters urine. The advantages are better packaging and cohesion, while the disadvantages are large weight and lots of dust.
3. Wood chip cat litter is made of wood chips left over from the wood. The advantage is that the wood chip sand is natural and environmentally friendly. After use, it can be directly flushed into the toilet or buried. There is less dust and the smell can cover up a certain odor. The disadvantage is that the wrapping ability is relatively poor and the clumping ability is not very strong.
4. Paper cat litter is made of recycled paper. After absorbing urine, it will appear dark and condense into a clump. The advantages are strong water absorption and good deodorization. Because it is paper, the weight is relatively small and there is no dust. However, the coating effect of this cat litter is poor, which can easily cause the poop to be exposed and produce a odor. It is prone to moisture and needs to be kept properly. It is best to deal with it in time, otherwise it will easily stick to the cat litter box.
