So I have read some posts about the fact that clay litter may not be the most healthy, and I am worried about the health effects. I have only ever used natural litters including world's best corn, wheat, blue walnut and pine- all of these make a huge mess and I find they hold odour even though I clean the box multiple times a day and I end up having to completely change the all the litter once a week. I bought a litter robot about 6 months ago and it came with their premium clumping litter, which is apparently sun dried natural clay- it was the best litter I have ever used it actually clumps unlike the natural litters and there is no tracking. I switched back to natural brands when I got my new kitten because I was worried she would eat it, but she has not and she is almost 6 months now. I really had it with the mess that world's best cat litter was making around my apartment and the smell so I started using the litter robot brand clay litter again as I had a couple of bags left and again it is so much better. I am just worried that is will negatively effect their health? I do feel better that Dr. Pierson of catinfo.org also uses clay litter, so I am hoping it is not too bad? The litter robot brand claims it is natural and sun dried- does this mean anything?
I can order the litter robot brand online and it is $25 for 20 pounds and I can get free shipping on it. I am just wondering if there are similar or even better clay litter I can get on the ground? Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat litter is what Dr. Pierson uses and I am wondering if this is just as safe to use? Are there any other more natural brands of clay litter?
