Because of its composition, Scoop-Lite weighs one-seventh the weight of traditional cat litters (2.5lbs works like 17.5lbs of traditional clay litter). Scoop-Lite Cat Litter is also environmentally friendly in that it is biodegradable and does not contain any sodium bentonite or silica dust. Traditional clay-based cat litter contains sodium bentonite as the clumping agent. Once sodium bentonite clumps, it gains the consistency of cement and presents a number of problems. Once in the landfills, these sodium bentonite based products do not break down. Further, cats tend to get the litter on their fur when they use the litter box. As reported in the Journal of Veterinarians and Humans, sodium bentonite in the litter, ingested by cats during the natural cleaning process, can cause blockages, dehydration, and prevent absorption of nutrients. Scoop-Lite Cat Litter is clumpable, 100% flushable and ecologically safe for your cat.
