Everyone wants that magic solution for controlling odors and at the same time getting the longest life from their litter with the least effort. Below are some solutions we’ve learned through the years:
Choice of litter: Quality is important. Cheap crystal litter won’t absorb as well as premium litters and so won’t last as long. A good quality crystal will last much longer and perform better. Scented brands only mask odor for you as a human, but not your cat. They smell a lot better than we do.
Rake and Stir: Very important!! This takes minimal effort and reaps huge benefits for you, your cat, and your pocketbook. Please watch our Cleaning and Care video for more on our recommended “rake and stir” technique).
Choice of Food: Just like for us humans, different foods for cats can produce some horrible smells — but there’s no reason you can’t find a good, healthy food (see \”Food Tips\” below for some further info)
Regular box cleaning: This seems like a no-brainer, but many people neglect the box and don’t understand why it stinks. If you use all the above tips (including Rake and Stir) and then learn when \”it’s time\” to change the box, everyone will be happier. Your cat smells a stinky litter box way before our noses detect it.
Baking soda: Many people find sprinkling a light dusting of baking soda in their trays after the tray is dry, just before pouring the crystals in at changing time helps keep odors down.
Ventilation: Make sure the box is in a well vented area. An ideal room is one with a vent fan and a window that you can open to the outdoors. Fresh air is your friend, especially in allowing your crystal litter to release moisture (see \”Moisture and Your Crystal Litter\” below for more details). You and your cat will appreciate a well vented litter box area, and your crystals will last much longer between changes.
