Full details
Pettex Silica Cat Litter Granules are designed for cat owners seeking a high-efficiency solution for moisture control and odor neutralization in their feline's litter tray. This litter is ideal for those who prefer a low-maintenance, clear granule substrate that effectively traps liquid on contact, though sensitive cats may require an adjustment period due to the unique texture of silica compared to traditional clay litters.

FAQs
Is Pettex Silica Cat Litter safe for my cat?
Yes, silica litter is inert and non-toxic, making it safe for general use in feline litter boxes.
How often should I change the silica litter?
Frequency depends on the number of cats and their habits, but a 7.6L bag typically lasts several weeks with daily solid waste removal.
Can this litter be flushed down the toilet?
No, silica litter should not be flushed as it can cause blockages in plumbing systems.
Does the litter produce a lot of dust?
Pettex Silica is designed to be relatively low-dust, which is beneficial for both cats and owners with respiratory sensitivities.
Is this litter scented?
Pettex Silica Cat Litter Granules are clear and unscented, relying on the physical properties of silica to neutralize odors naturally.
Troubleshooting
Cat is hesitant to use the new silica litter
Mix a small amount of the old litter with the new silica granules to help your cat transition to the new texture.
Litter tracking around the house
Place a high-quality litter trapping mat at the entrance of the tray to catch granules from your cat's paws.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior moisture absorption compared to standard clay

- Easy to monitor due to the clear granule appearance

- Some cats may find the texture of silica different from clay

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using, ensure your litter tray is thoroughly cleaned and completely dry. Pour the 7.6L bag into the tray to reach the recommended depth. For daily maintenance, remove solid waste immediately with a scoop. The silica remains in the tray, but as it loses its ability to absorb, you will notice a change in color or odor, signaling it is time to empty the tray and start fresh. Always dispose of used litter in accordance with local waste regulations and wash your hands thoroughly after handling the litter tray.
