What is Cassava Cat Litter?
Cassava cat litter is an environmentally friendly cat litter, which is mainly made of cassava flour.
Cassava is a plant mainly grown in tropical areas. Starch can be extracted from its roots to make cassava flour.
As a natural plant raw material, cassava is environmentally friendly and degradable, which meets the needs of
modern consumers for sustainable development.
With the continuous enhancement of global environmental awareness,
the green attribute of cassava cat litter has also become one of the key factors for it to win market favor.
The advantages of Cassava Cat Litter
1. Environmental protection
The main raw material of cassava cat litter is cassava flour, which is a natural plant material that
does not contain chemicals and is non-toxic and harmless. After use, it can be completely decomposed
and degraded into natural organic matter, which is environmentally friendly and in line with modern
consumers' pursuit of sustainable development.
2. Strong hygroscopicity
Cassava cat litter has excellent hygroscopic properties and can quickly absorb cat urine and condense it into a ball.
This not only helps to keep the cat litter box dry and clean, but also effectively reduces the growth of odor and bacteria,
providing a more comfortable excretion environment for cats.
3. Good odor control effect
Cassava cat litter contains natural cassava fibers, which have the ability to absorb and neutralize odors. Therefore,
cat litter boxes using cassava cat litter usually maintain a relatively fresh smell, reducing the trouble of
pet owners when cleaning the cat litter box.
4. Low dust
Compared with some traditional cat litters, cassava cat litter has finer particles and is not easy to produce dust.
This is essential for reducing indoor air pollution, protecting cats' respiratory systems, and keeping the home environment clean.
5. Cat-friendly
The texture of cassava cat litter is gentle and will not irritate the cat's paws. At the same time,
because of its fine particles, it is not easy to adhere to the cat's paws, reducing the cat's litter scattering outside the basin.
This makes cats more comfortable and at ease when using the cat litter box.
6. Easy to clean
After the cassava cat litter condenses into a ball, it can be easily scooped out with a cat litter shovel,
making it convenient for pet owners to clean up. This not only saves cleaning time, but also helps keep the cat litter box hygienic and tidy.
How to use Cassava Cat Litter?
1. Laying cat litter:
Lay cassava cat litter evenly in the cat litter box, the thickness is recommended to be 35 cm, and it can also be
adjusted appropriately according to actual needs. If you want a better anti-sticking effect, you can lay the
cat litter to a thickness of more than 810 cm.
2. Observe the clumping:
When the cat uses the cat litter box, the cassava cat litter will quickly absorb water and clump. The clumped
cat litter wraps the urine and is easy to clean.
3. Cleaning excrement:
Clean the cat's excrement every day, scoop out the clumped cat litter with a cat litter shovel and discard it.
Keeping the cat litter box clean helps reduce odor and bacterial growth.
4. Regular replacement:
Replace all cat litter regularly to maintain the hygiene and deodorization effect of the cat litter box.
It is recommended to replace it at least once a week, or determine the replacement frequency based on
the cleanliness of the cat litter box and the use of the cat.
Precautions
1. Avoid pouring into the toilet:
After use, do not pour cassava cat litter into the toilet or sewer to avoid clogging.
Please pour it into the trash can or other designated garbage disposal containers.
2. Sealed storage:
Cassava cat litter is hygroscopic. Please close the sealing strip after opening the bag to keep the cat litter dry and clean.
3. Mixed use:
If you want to enhance the deodorizing effect or extend the service life of the cat litter, you can consider mixing
cassava cat litter with other types of cat litter (such as mineral sand, activated carbon deodorizing cat litter, etc.).
But you need to pay attention to the proportion and method of mixing to ensure the balance
between the clumping effect and the deodorizing ability.
4. Adaptation period:
For some cats, it may take an adaptation period to replace the new cat litter. When using cassava cat litter
for the first time, it is recommended to gradually mix the new and old cat litter to allow the cat to gradually adapt to the new sand quality.
The high starch content of cassava cat litter can improve water absorption and agglomeration.
The surface of the particles is smooth, and it is known as "cat litter on the beach".
Cassava cat litter has become an ideal choice for pet owners due to its environmental friendliness,
strong moisture absorption, good odor control, low dust, cat-friendly and easy cleaning.
When choosing cat litter, pet owners can choose the appropriate type of cat litter according to their needs and the preferences of their cats.
