CAT LITTER

AbsorbX

Can any cat use AbsorbX lightweight clumping litter?

AbsorbX litter is a lightweight, clumping cat litter that any cat can use. Check with your vet about what litter they recommend if you’re adopting a very young kitten and pay attention to what you and your cat prefer when it comes to choosing which litter to use.

Can I switch to AbsorbX litter from a regular litter?

You can always switch what litter you use, depending on your and your cat’s needs. Keep in mind that any litter switch may take some getting used to for both you and your cat. If you’ve never used a lightweight litter like AbsorbX before, you will notice some changes in how it behaves vs. regular clumping litter so you may have to adjust your habits around scooping and cleaning. Your cat will let you know if she approves of the new litter, too. As with any change in litter box (space, size, litter), go slowly to keep kitty’s stress down.

Can I use multi-cat if I only have one cat?

Yes, this litter is strong enough to control odors for multiple cats but is safe for single cat households.

Does lightweight litter track more than other types of litter?

All cat litter can track outside the litter box depending on several factors. The smaller, less-dense particles in lightweight litter can stick to your cat’s paws or get pushed outside the litter box while your cat scratches. For best results with any litter, use a litter box mat to reduce tracking.

How does ARM & HAMMER™ CLUMP & SEAL™ ABSORBX Lightweight Clumping Litter eliminate crumbly clumps?

The desert dry minerals in ARM & HAMMER™ CLUMP & SEAL™ ABSORBX Lightweight Clumping Litter absorb and trap moisture, while proprietary adhering ingredients "glue" the smaller particles of the litter to the feces and help form hard urine clumps.

How does AbsorbX litter absorb urine so quickly?

AbsorbX contains diatomaceous earth, a highly absorbent natural desert mineral made of smaller, less dense particles. As a result, it absorbs wetness in seconds, making hard, self-contained clumps you can scoop immediately after your cat finishes.

How is lightweight litter different than regular clumping litter?

Lightweight cat litter uses smaller, less-dense particles than regular clumping cat litter, making it about 50% lighter to carry and pour. Both lightweight litter and regular clumping litter absorb urine and coat feces into hard, scoopable clumps for easier cleanup.

How much litter should I put in the litter box?

For best results, we recommend 3-4 inches of litter in your litter box.

Is AbsorbX litter good for multi-cat households?

Clump & Seal™ AbsorbX lightweight cat litter is designed for multi-cat households with 7-day odor control and fast-absorbing particles that surround urine and feces in seconds. Choose a scented or unscented formula, depending on what you and your cats prefer.

Why does the packaging state: “DO NOT FLUSH OR PUT INTO DRAINS”?

We do not recommend flushing the litter waste or putting it into drains due to the danger of cat feces entering the sewer system. Dangerous bacteria can be found in cat feces which could eventually make its way into ocean waters and threaten marine life, or in the case of local waterways which could impact drinking water, irrigating crops, etc. We recommend only disposing of used litter in the garbage.

Feline Pine Non-Clumping Cat Litter is made from 100% Pine. Sawdust byproduct from lumber mills is collected and compressed into tiny pellets. These pellets act like tiny sponges that absorb urine and break apart into sawdust. Scoop the solid waste daily, and gently shake the box so the good pellets float to the top and the sawdust drops to the bottom. Leave the sawdust in the box as it will still work to absorb moisture and odor. When the box is about 90% sawdust it is time to dispose of it and start with new litter.

What makes Feline Pine Cat Litter highly absorbent?

Feline Pine Cat Litter is made from completely dehydrated pine fibers, allowing it to absorb liquid like thousands of tiny sponges. Which means your cat's litter box will stay fresh and dry, making cleanup easy.

Why are my pellets different colors?

Since Feline Pine is a natural product, and because every geographical terrain is different, where we acquire our raw material can affect the coloration of the final product. Other factors can include natural floods, fires, droughts, mineral presence in soil, and other occurrences that may affect trees. Because of these natural occurrences and the fact that we do not add any harsh chemicals to our litter, there may be a variety of "shades." A common range can be anywhere between gray to a soft yellow.

What is Clumping Litter or Scoopable Litter? How does it differ from traditional Clay Litters?

Clumping or scoopable litters utilize the "clumping" properties of sodium bentonite, a naturally derived special type of clay, to control litter box odors. This special type of clay uses the moisture it absorbs to bond soiled litter particles into clumps for easy removal and disposal. Litter boxes using clumping litters can be cleaned by removing only the soiled litter and sprinkling a new layer of clumping litter in the box. The box is fresh for use without the unpleasant task of emptying, washing and drying! Ordinary clay litters can absorb moisture, but cannot isolate it for easy removal. Since soiled litter is a source of odor-causing bacteria, clay litter must be completely changed frequently to prevent odor build-up. This involves discarding the entire contents of the litter box, washing and drying the box, and replacing the litter — a messy and smelly task... Cats love a clean litter box and nothing is cleaner than fresh clumping litter. Cats think clumping litter is the best thing since catnip...we think you'll agree!

Super Scoop™ should not be flushed. As a scoopable product, Super Scoop™ forms clumps when exposed to direct moisture. Consequently, do not flush the product since it can interfere with pipes or a septic system.

How do I use ARM & HAMMER™ Super Scoop™?

When using ARM & HAMMER™ Super Scoop™ for the first time begin with a clean, empty litter box. Fill the litter box with at least 3-4 inches of ARM & HAMMER™ Super Scoop™. As your cat uses the litter box, scoop out soiled clumps and solids. The quick, hard clumping action of ARM & HAMMER™ Super Scoop™ locks odors inside and helps prevent crumbling so the rest of the litter stays first-day-fresh longer. After you groom the litter box by removing the odor clumps and solids, replace the discarded litter with a sprinkling of fresh litter. Please be sure to maintain at least a 3-4- inch layer in the box.

What are the ingredients in ARM & HAMMER™ Super Scoop™ Cat Litter?

The product contains ingredients to aid in odor control. To form rock solid clumps, ARM & HAMMER™ Super Scoop™ contains premium grade sodium bentonite, a special type of clay. To eliminate odors, the product contains an Ammonia Odor Block formula with powerful crystals. The Fresh Scent version also contains a moisture-activated fragrance.
