Best Litter for Stray Feral Cats / Feline Pine

Stray cats that have been living outdoors will shy away from fragrant clay litters but when I filled litter boxes with feline pine that the stray cats that I was socializing had no problem using the litter box.



Even feral cats that have been born outdoors will try to use a litter box that has been filled with pine litter.

Honestly, I think its due to the scent of the natural pine.   The cats attribute the scent to being outdoors, and going to bathroom in pine needles.   Maybe they like the texture as when this litter is wet it will breakdown to sawdust.

All I know is stray cats that have lived outdoors for an extended period of time prefer a natural pine litter and will go outside the litterbox that is filled with clumping clay that is fragrant.

Feline Pine is the brand name and it does come in clumping or non-clumping  pine pellets.  The pine scent will add a woodsy fragrance to yo9ur entire house.  It does a good job at eliminating litter lox odors.

Unlike other litters feline pine is chemical free, with no added fragrance.  Its naturally pine scented.  If you buy a seven-pound bag this bag should last a month for one or two cats. 

Note even though this litter is natural please do not dump it outdoors or in your garden or other location.  Instead place the used litter in a bag, tie the top of the bag and put in your trashcan.  By doing this you will prevent the spread of Toxoplasma.   

 Shop for Feline Pine at  Chewy, Amazon or Pet Smart or other online stores.
