Natural Litter Buying Guide

Everything you need to choose and transition to the perfect natural litter.

What to Consider

Clumping makes scooping easier but costs more. Non-clumping requires full litter changes but is gentler.

Multi-cat homes need stronger odor control. Consider walnut, wood, or adding Purrify activated carbon.

Some cats prefer fine textures (corn/wheat), others like pellets (wood). Watch their behavior.

If you or your cat have respiratory issues, choose paper or low-dust options.

All natural litters are better than clay, but grass and recycled paper have the smallest footprint.

Natural litters cost more upfront but often last longer. Start with trial sizes to find the right fit.

Based on common needs, here are our top picks:

🌾

Corn or Wheat Litter

Great clumping, low dust, familiar texture

🥥

Walnut Shell Litter

Superior absorption, great for multi-cat homes

📄

Paper Litter

Ultra-soft, dust-free, gentle on paws

Mix 25% new litter with 75% old. Increase new litter by 25% weekly until fully transitioned.

Don't change the litter box during transition. One change at a time.

Keep 2-3 inches of litter. Cats like to dig and bury.

If your cat avoids the box, slow down the transition. Some cats need more time.

Scoop daily and do full changes as recommended by the litter brand.

Sprinkle Purrify activated carbon on any natural litter to boost odor control by up to 3x.
