If the owner wants to change a new cat litter for the cat, a certain transition period is needed, because most cats do not like to change their current living conditions and living environment, and cat litter is something that cats do not like to change. During the transition period between the old and new cat litters, there are three things that cat owners need to pay attention to.
First of all, the new cat litter to be replaced should be suitable for the cat. If the new cat litter is not suitable for your cat, this transition period will only make the cat more uncomfortable and uneasy. In any case, the cat's feelings are always the first thing the owner needs to consider when choosing cat litter. If your cat is sensitive to smell, it is best not to use pine cat litter because it has a strong smell; bentonite cat litter with more dust is also not suitable for cats that are sensitive to smell; the owner can choose tofu cat litter and corn cat litter that are almost dust-free and have a light smell. If your cat has high requirements for claw feel, the owner is better not to choose crystal cat litter. When choosing a new cat litter, you need to pay attention to more than just these few issues. It is mainly based on the cat's preferences and physical condition to choose a cat litter that best suits it.
When replacing old and new cat litter, it is best not to make any changes to the environment and familiar things around the cat. Because cats are very "nostalgic" animals, they usually continue their original lifestyle and never change unless something unexpected happens. They are unwilling to destroy the current comfortable and cozy environment in order to try new things. If the owner replaces other things used by the cat when changing the cat litter, the familiar environment will be changed, and the cat will feel uncomfortable and scared.
The process of changing cat litter is a process that requires adaptation. If the cat owner is impatient and can't wait to replace the old cat litter as soon as he buys the new cat litter, the overwhelmed cat may refuse to go to the toilet in the cat litter box and choose a familiar corner at home to defecate. In the process of replacing the old and new cat litter, the new cat litter should be gradually mixed into the old cat litter. The first time, you can put 20% of the old cat litter, the second time, it will increase to 40%, the third time, it will increase to 80%, and finally all replaced with new cat litter. This gradual adaptation process is a more acceptable way for cats.
