When silica cat litter first came on the market, many cat owners were a little dubious that the product would really be much of an improvement over clay and other types. However, silica brands of cat litter has made a number of converts since it was first introduced. Here are a couple of advantages to using this type of cat litter that may be of interest to you.

One of the most attractive things about silica in general is that it is a porous material. What this means is that the silica will quickly absorb all liquids that come in contact with the substance. From the perspective of being used as a form of cat litter, the silica crystals will easily absorb the cat urine as well as the liquid contained in the solid waste. What this means for you and your home is that the strong ammonia scent of cat urine is banished from your space, and the smell of cat waste is also neutralized once the liquid is absorbed. Your home will smell fresh and clean because it is in fact fresh and clean. For your cat, this also means that the litter box will appear fresh and more inviting to your pet as well.

Silica cat litter is also the litter of choice with automatic cat litter boxes. Because those automatic boxes rely on a comb that moves across the tray to move solid waste into a holding compartment, any type of clumping cat litter will just defeat the purpose. The silica does not cling to waste, making it possible for you to use an automatic litter box and thus only have to tend to the cleaning process once a week or so. Less time cleaning the litter box means more time to spend with your pet.

Silica litter can be purchased at most supermarkets, as well as national pet shop chains. From the perspective of cost, you will not find the price to be very different from that of most national brands of litter. This means you can get a higher quality litter and still not pay any more for the product.

While silica cat may cost a little more, the price is more than offset by not having to buy so many air fresheners and deodorizers in order to mask the cat litter box scents. Plus, your cat will be happier with the hygiene of the litter box itself. Why not pick up one of the silica blends of cat litter today and give it a try?
