Description of clumping fillers
For cat litter, you can find clumping litter, packaged in 5, 10 or 15 kg. This product is made from bentonite clay and other minerals. When water gets on the filler, it clumps. You can immediately remove the lump, and then the toilet will remain clean. A little toilet product is poured onto the formed place.
In order to use such a product economically, it is recommended to take a tray with high sides for it, and put the filler in it in a thick layer. Approximately this is from 10 to 12 cm. The toilet is completely changed after seven days, but it is possible earlier if there are not one, but several animals in the house. This dry closet is suitable for most breeds, including short-haired and long-haired.
It is not advisable to use clumping litters for kittens, as they may begin to chew them. If it gets inside, it will begin to swell, as a result the animal will suffer. And also do not use a thin layer, because then the wet clay will stick to the paws and wool.
Clumping filler is more expensive than absorbent filler, but not much. The most expensive products are those with silicone granules.
