How often is it appropriate to change the cat litter
Cats are very clean pets. If your litter box is dirty, the cat will not defecate in it. If you want to keep your house tidy and fresh, then you need to replace the cat litter regularly. How long it takes to change the litter depends on your cat’s toilet habits and the number of cats. The following article will introduce you to several methods.
1. The choice of cat litter
At present, bentonite is mostly used as cat litter on the market. It can become lumpy when wet, and it can also mask the smell. You only need to shovel out these clumps within 1 day. If these clumps are left unattended for too long, they can also cause discomfort to the cat.
2. Cleaning the litter box
Many people only remember to change the cat litter regularly, but forget that the tray containing the cat litter also needs to be cleaned regularly. Otherwise, the litter box will also emit an unpleasant smell. When cleaning the litter box, please do not use cleaning products with strong odors and toxic ingredients, which will pose a threat to the health of the cat.
3. Replacement of cat litter
You need to add 3-4 inches of fresh cat litter every time you shovel out the old cat litter. In addition, do not flush cat litter into the toilet to protect the water supply and the animals living in it.
