How often should I change the litter?

This depends on the number of pets and usage. For optimal hygiene, remove soiled parts daily and perform a complete litter change typically every 2-4 weeks.

Is the litter scented?

No, Cat's Best Universal is unscented. It relies on the natural properties of the plant fibers to bind odors.

What are the main benefits of using plant fiber litter?

Plant fiber litter is naturally absorbent, effectively binds odors, is biodegradable, compostable, and generally low-dust, creating a healthier environment for pets and owners.

Can I use this litter for birds?

Yes, the product description states it is suitable for many bird species.

What does 'universal' mean in the product name?

The 'Universal' designation means the litter is suitable for a wide variety of small pets, not just cats, and can be used in different ways, such as for general bedding or as supplementary litter for wet areas.

Troubleshooting

Litter does not seem to absorb odors effectively.

Ensure a sufficient depth of litter is used (5-7 cm). Remove heavily soiled areas daily. If the issue persists, consider a full litter change or assess if the animal's diet is contributing to strong odors.

Litter seems dusty.

While formulated to be low-dust, some fine particles may be present. Pour the litter gently and avoid creating excessive dust clouds. Store the bag sealed in a dry place.

Pet is not using the litter box.

Ensure the litter box is clean and placed in a suitable, quiet location. Try adding a small amount of the pet's soiled litter to the new litter to encourage use. For cats, non-clumping litter might require an adjustment period.

Disposal is proving difficult with local services.

Check your local waste management guidelines. Cat's Best Universal is biodegradable and compostable, but local regulations for disposal vary. It can typically go in organic waste, compost, or residual waste, but never flush large amounts.
