Before you start the switch, it’s important to understand why tofu cat litter is better:
1. Environmentally friendly: Tofu cat litter can be flushed down the toilet and is biodegradable, minimizing waste.
2. Odor control: Keep your house smelling fresh by successfully eliminating odors.
3. Low dust: Your cat will breathe easier and streak-free when using tofu cat litter compared to clay cat litter.
4. Non-toxic: Since it is made of food-grade materials, it is also safe if your cat accidentally swallows it.
Because cats are creatures of habit, sudden changes may cause stress and avoidance behavior. Therefore, a slow introduction is essential.
First, add a small amount of tofu litter to your cat's existing litter. The best ratio is one part tofu litter to three parts regular litter. Observe your cat's reaction. If they continue to use the litter without problems, you can move on to the next stage.
After one week, increase the ratio of tofu litter to existing litter to 1:1. Then observe your cat's behavior. After another week, if they are still comfortable, increase the ratio again. Gradually increase the proportion of tofu litter until only tofu litter is used. This transition may take three to four weeks, depending on your cat's ability to adapt.
Slowly and carefully transitioning your cat to tofu litter can be a simple process. For many cat owners, tofu litter has excellent deodorizing and clumping properties in addition to its environmental benefits. These instructions will help you and your feline friend make a smooth transition and have a happier, healthier environment.
