Product Information
Full details
The PIDAN FOBT Tofu Cat Litter - Blood Detect is designed for health-conscious cat owners seeking an early warning system for their pet's well-being. Its key benefit lies in its innovative Fecal Occult Blood Test (FOBT) technology, which changes color to help detect hidden blood in cat waste, signaling potential health issues. A potential caveat is that the color change is specific to blood detection and may not indicate other health concerns.

FAQs
How does the FOBT technology work?
The FOBT particles in the litter react with occult blood in your cat's waste, causing a visible color change. This change serves as an indicator that may require further investigation by a veterinarian.
Is this litter safe if my cat ingests it?
PIDAN FOBT Tofu Cat Litter is made from natural tofu and is generally safe if small amounts are ingested. However, it is designed for external use as litter, and excessive ingestion should be avoided.
How often should I completely change the litter?
A complete litter change is typically recommended every 2-4 weeks, depending on the number of cats using the box and the volume of waste. Daily scooping of solid waste and urine clumps will extend the freshness of the litter.
Can I flush this litter down the toilet?
Yes, PIDAN FOBT Tofu Cat Litter is flushable. However, it is important to flush only small quantities at a time to avoid clogging plumbing.
What is the size and weight of the bag?
The standard bag size is 2.4kg.
What are the particle sizes in the litter?
The litter is composed of 70% of Tofu Cat Litter with a diameter of 2.0mm and 30% of Tofu Cat Litter with a diameter of 1.5mm, plus 10g of Occult Blood Test Particles.
Does this litter control dust?
Yes, the tofu base is formulated to be dust-free, which helps maintain a cleaner home environment and is better for your cat's respiratory system.
Troubleshooting
Litter does not change color when blood is suspected.
Ensure sufficient quantity of waste has been deposited and has had adequate contact time with the litter. Verify that the color change is indeed related to blood and not other common urine or fecal characteristics. Consult a veterinarian if you have persistent concerns about your cat's health.
Litter is not clumping effectively.
Ensure the litter is poured to the recommended depth (2-3 inches). For best clumping, avoid mixing with other types of cat litter. Check if the specific waste composition is affecting clumping. Scoop clumps promptly to maintain litter box hygiene.
Odor control is not as expected.
Ensure the litter is being scooped daily. If odor persists, consider increasing the depth of the litter or performing a full litter change more frequently. Ensure the litter box is adequately sized for your cat.
Cat is hesitant to use the new litter.
Gradually introduce the new litter by mixing it with your cat's previous litter, slowly increasing the proportion of PIDAN FOBT Tofu Cat Litter over several days. Ensure the litter box is clean and placed in a quiet, accessible location.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up, fill your cat's litter box with PIDAN FOBT Tofu Cat Litter. A depth of 2-3 inches is generally recommended for optimal performance and absorption. Ensure the litter box is clean before filling.
Compatibility: This litter is compatible with most standard litter boxes, including open and covered types, as well as automatic litter boxes designed for clumping litter. It is suitable for adult cats and kittens alike.
Care: Scoop soiled litter daily. As the litter is flushable, waste can be disposed of down the toilet in small quantities. Replace the entire litter box contents as needed, typically every 2-4 weeks depending on the number of cats and usage. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners directly on the litter; a simple wipe-down of the litter box with mild soap and water is sufficient between full changes. Store unused litter in a cool, dry place, ensuring the vacuum-sealed packaging remains intact until ready for use.
