For cat owners, choosing the type of litter that's best for your feline friend is just as important as cleaning their litter box regularly in order to keep them happy and healthy. The two main types of cat litter that you can choose from are non-clumping and clumping litter. Non-clumping litter is made of particles that do not clump together and remain separately even when soaked, meaning it hardly absorbs anything when coming in contact with your cat's urine or stools, while also creating a lot of dust when scooped, to which your cat may be sensitive to, and could potentially even cause them respiratory problems. Alternatively, there's clumping litter, which forms clumps when it comes into contact with your cat's liquid or solid excretions. This type of cat litter is made from natural materials like plant fibers, making it capable of absorbing a large volume of liquid and locking away bad odors, while also allowing it to be easily scooped out and disposed of when cleaning your cat's litter box. For a high-quality clumping litter option, go with the ökocat Original Premium Clumping Wood Cat Litter by Healthy Pet. The ökocat Original Premium Clumping Wood Cat Litter is a premium, biodegradable, natural clumping cat litter which is crafted from sustainably sourced natural wood fibers from upcycled wood, meaning it doesn't contain any artificial fragrances, harmful chemicals, toxic dyes, nor mined clay or silica, while also making it 99% dust free and naturally lightweight for easy lifting, pouring and disposal. This clumping litter is relentless at controlling odor and absorbing liquid on contact to form solid clumps for easy scooping and cleaning, while also offering a pleasant and playful texture that's easy on your cat's paws, along with a fresh natural scent that's reminiscent of the great outdoors. All that makes it a superior option of clumping litter that's cleaner and healthier for your cat, and also for your household. More than just a gift for cats, it's a gift for the planet and also the ideal way to create a healthier and happier home. Now, let's talk a little more about the ökocat Original Premium Clumping Wood Cat Litter, where we'll go over the formula that makes this premium natural clumping cat litter so special and also discuss all the benefits that it can bring to cats and their owners. INGREDIENTS USED & MAIN HEALTH BENEFITS Starting with the ingredients that are used to make the ökocat Original Premium Clumping Wood Cat Litter, know that this premium, biodegradable, natural clumping cat litter is made from 100% plant-based materials. More specifically, it is crafted from sustainably sourced, responsibly rescued natural wood fibers from upcycled wood consisting of a blend of spruce, fir and pine woods. All that sourced natural wood is dried at a very high temperature to guarantee the removal of any volatile oils or phenols, which ensures that this clumping litter is safe for all cat breeds. The choice of only using natural wood fibers from upcycled wood to produce this natural clumping litter also means that it does not contain any artificial fragrances, harmful chemicals, toxic dyes, nor mined clay or silica, as the company does not utilize any of those substances when processing it. Its precision-cut wood fibers make it relentless at controlling odor by naturally preventing enzymes from bonding with liquid and solid waste. Not only that, but its natural wood fibers also allow it to effectively absorb liquid (i.e. urine) on contact to form solid clumps for easy scooping and cleaning. The end result is a premium and 100% natural clumping cat litter which has a pleasant and playful texture that's easy on your cat's paws, packs a fresh natural scent that's reminiscent of the great outdoors. Since this clumping litter is solely made from natural wood fibers, this also makes it naturally lightweight for easy lifting, pouring and disposal when cleaning your cat's litter box and replacing its litter with a new, fresh batch. Lastly, this litter is also rated to be 99%-dust free. This is particularly thanks to the process the company resorts to for crafting those wood fibers, which are first processed, washed and screened via a special proprietary process which melds those fibers together to produce a finished pellet that's then dried and re-screened once again. HOW TO INTRODUCE YOUR CATS TO THIS CLUMPING LITTER? When first introducing your cat to this new brand of clumping litter, the company recommends for cat owners to start by filling half of their cat's litter box with half of their current litter brand and half of ökocat Original Premium Clumping Wood Cat Litter when doing the first litter change. For the following litter change, the company recommends going with 1/3 of your current litter brand and 2/3 of ökocat Original Clumping Litter. Once your cat shows signs that it is comfortable with this change in type of litter, you can finally fill his / her entire litter box just with ökocat Original Clumping Litter. With regular scooping, one bag of this natural clumping litter can last up to 7 weeks. PACKAGING It's also worth noting that this premium natural clumping cat litter comes in a 100% recyclable paper bag that's easy to cut and pour. PRICING & AVAILABILITY If you’re interested in purchasing the ökocat Original Premium Clumping Wood Cat Litter, know that this premium natural clumping cat litter is available in bag sizes of 9 lbs., 12.6 lbs., 18.8 lbs., and 26 lbs., for which prices range between $10.99 and $27.99, depending on which sizing option you decide to go with.

We'd also like to note that in addition to the ökocat Original, Healthy Pet’s ökocat line of premium natural cat litter also includes five (x5) other types of litter, which are: Less Mess (made with slightly larger wood pellets that offer lower tracking and are easier to pick up); Super-Soft (made with smoother wood pellets that are more suitable for cat breeds with delicate paw pads); Featherweight (made with slightly lighter wood pellets that make it easier for cats to dig in); Unscented Featherweight (same as the Featherweight litter type, but unscented); Paper Pellet (made with paper pellets instead of wood – ideal for cats with respiratory ailments, homes with allergies or post-surgical needs).
