Kaytee Kay Kob Bird & Small Animal Natural Bedding & Litter

I have been using corn cob litter from various brands and now purchase this one from Chewy. Back in the 90s a few breeders told me about using corn cob litter, as it is lightweight and no dust or smell like clay litter. Don’t know if there were very many choices way back then as there is today. I had tried newspaper in the bottom with a layer of rabbit pellets and then a layer of cob litter. It worked fine as long as they didn’t dig like crazy and bring up the paper. The newsprint did leave the bottom of the box with some ugly looks.

Eventually I gave up on newspapers and rabbit pellets. With the garbage guy complaining about rocks in my can, clay just had to go. Those were the days before they had one guy with lifts on his truck. They would have one guy driving and 2 would run up to your side gate and dump your can into their big metal cans. Now we all roll our provided plastic cans out to the street while one driver manages the whole operation.

My brother came to visit, not sure how many cats I had at the time, but he was impressed with the lack of smell. His daughter had one cat, she used clay litter and her kitchen smelled like a giant litter box. He got her hooked on the cob litter.

Is this the best litter? I suppose it depends what you have been using and what kind of litter box you have. Plus what is your ability for cleaning boxes. If you live in an apartment/condo, the facilities available to you might be limited. There are lots of boxes and litters to pick from, so evaluate your situation, this litter might fit your needs and then again it might not. But finding dust free and natural litters will help your fur babies live a better life. I have 2 cats and 3 boxes. They are dumped and washed out once a week.

There is no dust and it is natural. It doesn’t cling to their paws. When I had clay, not only did the cats have to breathe that dust, but it made the whole house dusty. And I HATE dusting. That is one task that is never a satisfying one. As the only time you notice anything, is when it is dusty!

Never had any cats that balked at the transition to cob litter. It probably feels a lot better than clay to their little paws. And they are not breathing or ingesting clay. Clay is not good for a cat’s respiratory system. I know that this litter references birds and small animals. It doesn’t mention cats. But as with breeders I’ve known for years have suggested using corn cob litter for their cat boxes. There maybe other similar products that specify for cats and this is a natural product. I’ve used different brands and found this is so easy to get delivered from Chewy. Locally was difficult to get in 25lb bags, so opted for ordering it online. With the basics in the table below is important to consider when choosing any litter.
