If you're fed up of picking up the cat's litter and marching down the hall to the waste disposal then help is at hand! If the odor is making you sick, then help is at hand! Flushable cat litter provides the answer to these problems.

Flushable cat litter is the height of convenience for all you cat lovers. All you have to do is pick up the litter from the cat's litter box, take it down to the nearest toilet bowl, and flush it away. Simple!

This kind of litter is finer than clumping clay. It is also about 3 times costlier than the ordinary clumping clay. On the positive side, you don't have to use as much flushing litter as the ordinary variety. If it is not available in the local area, there are plenty of suppliers on the Internet who will take your order and deliver it to your very own doorstep,

Both types of litter have more or less the same environmental impact. One goes to a landfill; the other goes to make sewage and wastes water. The best choice is to get a litter that can be composted after having the dried stool removed.

But what does Macavity have to say about this modernism? Most cats we interviewed had a pretty poor opinion of the new-fangled stuff! You will have to watch your cat's reaction to the flushable litter for a week or two.

If your cat doesn't accept the flushable litter, it is worth a try to get your cat used to the new variety in a gradual way. Mix a fistful of flushable litter with the clumping clay. See whether Tabby accepts it. If so, go on increasing the quantity day by day, till one day it is 100% of the flushable variety. Don't flush the mixture down the toilet! When it is 100% of the flushable kind, then and only then can you flush it.

Your cat may just not accept the flushable litter. Then you have no option but to continue as you are. However, if your cat gets used to the flushable litter, then you can expect an odorless and convenient experience.

The use of either type of litter has a similar impact on the environment. The flushable litter is very convenient and odor-free. Whether you use flushable litter or not depends solely on the cat. If the cat likes it then you are in for an odor-less and convenient experience. Did I hear a "Meow"?
