Tigerino Canada Style cat litter is made of natural clay and is free of any chemical additives. It also effectively binds unpleasant odours. Clay litters are also relatively heavy for a certain volume, so larger bags of litter can be heavier to lift. Plant Based Cat litter can be made from a variety of different materials, and each has its own characteristics. Clay

Classic Eco Cat clumping litter is made from plant fibres. It is a plant-based alternative to conventional cat litter in Germany, completely biodegradable and can easily be disposed of in compost or organic waste. CATSAN Natural clumping odour control cat litter absorbs before odour develops. The litter stays dry and comfortable for your cat. Although this is a clay litter, which is not a particularly eco-friendly product, Biokat’s use 100% natural clay sourced from open-mine casts in Bavaria (Germany). The litters are also produced in Germany, meaning shorter transport routes and lower emissions. So if you’re keen to use a clay clumping litter, then this one appears to be less damaging to the environment than other brands. Like all clay litters though, this one isn’t biodegradable.

No chemicals have been added either, making this product compostable and biodegradable and convenient to dispose of in the household toilet. The granules in this cat litter have a low weight, but still, absorb a lot of liquid and unpleasant odours. Some cat litters have added fragrances, such as pine, to hide the unpleasant smells. However while these smells might be attractive to us humans, they don’t have the same effect on cats and could put them off. Just think how it feels to go into a room where someone has sprayed a really strong perfume – it can be rather unpleasant and overbearing. This is how it would feel to a cat, who has a much more sensitive sense of smell compared to us humans. Cats also mark their territory with their scent, so by masking it with artificial smells this could also put them off using the tray. The best way to dispose of cat litter is to scoop it into a biodegradable poop bag, and then place in your normal household bin, or a cat litter bin. A Litter bit of this! This clumping cat litter is made from plant fibres so it is biodegradable and compostable . It is highly absorbent, economical, virtually dust-free and extremely kind to cat paws.

This cat litter forms firm, flat lumps that can be easily lifted out with a scoop when cleaning the toilet.Your cat will walk on the litter to go to the toilet, and also scratch it after they’ve finished to try and bury their waste, so it’s important to get a litter that is soft on their paws. Some cats have more sensitive paw pads than others, so in this case you’ll need a litter that is softer to the touch. Can be ideally combined with the PeeWee cat toilets: an environmentally friendly & comfortable toilet system I have now lived with a cat for a few years and have tried and tested almost every available cat litter brand in Germany. My favourite cat litter in Germany is a mix of plant-based and clumping litter with a cat litter deo. This is the only way I have been able to achieve a ‘no-cat in the house’ state. This brand of litter is especially good if you’re looking for an eco-friendly product. BioKat’s were awarded the ECOCARE award in 2012 for their work in sustainability. It is available in various variants such as fragrance-free, baby powder, white rose and lemongrass scents or the scent of freshly cut grass, lavender, vanilla or almond milk & honey as well as in the alternating limited editions cherry blossom and winter rose scents.
