Environmentally Friendly Cat Litter At Last

Environmentally Friendly Cat Litter At Last

You may not have realized it, but if you've been using clay based clumping cat litter over the last few decades, you may have been putting both you and your cats at risk for serious health problems.

Old fashioned clumping cat litter contains two harmful substances. Silica dust is a known carcinogen and lung tissue irritant found in cat litter. When you cat scratches in his litter, the dust is raised and he may breath it in. At the least, this can cause a respiratory infection. You run the risk of breathing it in when you clean out the cat litter box.

Sodium bentonite is the clumping agent in clay cat litter. Sodium benonite can absorb up to 15 times it's weight in water, swelling into chunks with the texture of concrete, and it never bio-degrades. Cats can accidentally ingest this substance when it sticks to their paws, causing intestinal blockages that can lead to malnutrition, dehydration and possibly death.

Thank goodness there is finally an environmentally friendly cat litter that is safe for all concerned. Scientific Professional Cat Litter is a completely flushable cat litter that won't harm your pet even if it's accidentally ingested when he cleans himself. This cat litter is even more earth friendly because it is completely bio-degradable.

Doesn't it make sense to use an earth friendly cat litter for your pet? Scientific Professional Cat Litter is here at last, so why not make the switch today?
