FAQs

Is this litter safe for kittens?

Yes, the Fur & Bone Silica Cat Litter Crystals are made from high-quality, non-toxic silica and have a gentle texture that is safe and comfortable for kittens.

How often should I completely change the litter?

With regular scooping of solids and occasional stirring, a full litter change can typically be postponed for several weeks, depending on the number of cats and usage. This makes it more cost-effective and requires less frequent full changes than traditional litters.

Can I flush this litter down the toilet?

No, silica cat litter crystals are not flushable. Please dispose of used litter according to your local waste disposal regulations.

How does non-clumping litter work?

Non-clumping silica litter absorbs liquid directly into the crystals. Solids are left on the surface and can be scooped out daily. The crystals then continue to absorb moisture and odors until they are saturated and the litter needs to be fully replaced.

What is the benefit of low dust?

A low-dust formula helps to protect the respiratory health of both cats and humans. It reduces the amount of airborne particles when pouring or scooping, leading to a cleaner home environment and fewer potential irritations.

How much litter do I need to use?

For optimal performance, aim for a litter depth of 1.5 to 2 inches in the litter box.

Does this litter have a scent?

The Fur & Bone Silica Cat Litter Crystals are unscented, providing natural odor control without artificial fragrances that can sometimes bother cats.

Troubleshooting

Cat is hesitant to use the new litter

Ensure the litter box is clean and placed in a familiar location. You can try mixing a small amount of the old litter with the new silica litter initially to help with the transition. Ensure the depth is appropriate (1.5-2 inches).

Unpleasant odor persists

Ensure you are scooping solid waste daily. Stir the litter daily to expose trapped moisture. If odor control is still an issue, consider a larger litter box or increasing the frequency of topping up the litter.

Litter seems to be getting everywhere

While designed to reduce tracking, ensure the litter box is large enough to contain scatter. Placing a litter mat outside the box can also help catch any stray crystals.

Litter becoming saturated quickly

Ensure the initial depth is adequate (1.5-2 inches). If you have a particularly heavy user or a multi-cat household, you may need to top up the litter more frequently or consider using a larger litter box.

Cons

Non-clumping nature requires a different scooping technique.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Pour the Fur & Bone Silica Cat Litter Crystals into a clean, dry litter box, filling it to a depth of approximately 1.5 to 2 inches.
Place the litter box in a quiet, accessible location for your cat.

Compatibility:

Compatible with most standard litter boxes, litter box liners, and litter box systems, including open trays and covered bins.
Suitable for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats.
Ideal for multi-cat households.

Care:

Scoop solid waste daily. Since it is non-clumping, solids will sit on the surface for easy removal.
Stir the litter occasionally to help distribute moisture and maintain freshness.
Add more silica crystals as needed to maintain the desired depth.
For a full litter change, empty the entire contents of the litter box. Dispose of used litter according to local regulations (do not flush).
Wipe down the litter box with a mild soap and water solution when performing a full change.
Avoid using harsh chemicals or ammonia-based cleaners, as these can deter cats from using the litter box.
