Hi!
I've been seeing a lot of talk about using wood pellets/horse bedding as eco-friendly and economical cat litter. I am very keen on trying this method - however, all of the videos and posts I've seen seem to come from the US, where Tractor Supply Co. sells an "Equine pelletized bedding kiln dried" brand of horse pine pellets. The same store in Canada does not carry this particular brand (it carries others, and that is my question).
I am looking for recommendations on which brand/product available at Canadian stores would be safe to use with my 2 kitties? I know there are many, many wood pellet options out there at Walmart, Canadian Tire, Rona, etc. (for grills, stoves, and bedding), but I also heard not all of them are safe for cats (due to oils, additives, etc.) and I'm not sure which are equivalent to Equine ones in the USA.
Any tried and tested pellets you recommend?
P.S. Am I supposed to use hardwood or softwood? Stove pellets or only bedding ones? HELP please!
Thank you x a million!
