I foster kittens. They lick and tase everything at four weeks. Are the pellets harmful?

Yes.....don't use this litter for newborn kittens! They need either newspaper or some thing Sandy to get them to use it anyway. I know...because I have many cats that I raised and kept

Sorry, I cannot answer you question exactly. I use 1 teaspoon full per day to sprinkle over both my dogs and the two cats food, and there are times when my one cat needs more and I mix one teaspoon with a little water and a strong probiotic to regulate his intestinal issues. I believe the last container lasted between 3 - 4 months. So much depends if you use intensively to address an issue or as maintenance. I hope this helps a little bit.

Hi Tammie, . If anything they absorb. I had to use the pellets once and because they've wood shavings that's what they'll do.Good Mews is made from 100% recycled paper. They've a little bit harder to scoop up but there better for the environment and the cat. Hope that was a help to you. Enjoy, Charlotte Donnan

I am just a customer, and don't know much about the product. You'd be best researching the Frontline website and see what they say about it. To my knowledge you shouldn't use those things on kittens under six months or it could kill them. Do a little research online. When I had kittens show up with fleas after adoptions or rescue I always bathed them and their bedding to kill the fleas. There are a number of safe organic flea and tick treatments out there. I'd go for those! In my situation I didn't have that option. My cats are older and VERY feral, and it would have been impossible to bathe them. A kitten is much easier! Read as much as you can about any product or food you use on your pets. There is so much information available on pet medical websites now. As an informed owner, you alone can make the best decisions for them!

My cat's veterinarian recommends these collars for nervous cats. I am pretty sure your baby didn't die due to the collar. Sorry, it's always SO hard.

I am not sure, I found that the pellets turn to a dust once the cat pees on it. I found that this cat liter intensifies the bad smell that other liters rid of.

The first couple of days, I set the two litter boxes side-by-side just to see if the pellets would be used. Then started adding 1/2 cup of Tidy Breeze pellets to the clumping clay litter box about every three days until I had used about 1/2 sack of pellets. At this point, I started taking away the clumping clay box a few hours at a time and watched to see what would happen. I had to do this several times before a final change was made. It was a chore to clean the clumping clay box with the pellets, but the results were definitely worth it. When first using the pellets, cats will want to play with them if they can roll around. I would suggest putting some kind of rug under the litter box that extends out enough to catch pellets. I find this keeps them from trying to play with them;thus, possibly trying to put them in their mouths.

Absolutely! MUCH cheaper this way that at "the chain stores". They're super easy to "crunch up for cats", what we do for our 2 spoiled ones :)) Even out kitten can "gnaw" through these, as they're pretty much like "Styrofoam protein" forthe pets and are easily "crunched down". Our cats LOVE them.

Cats' digestive systems are built to handle raw meat just fine, so I wouldn't worry about that. However they really are supposed to be treats so if there's still some left in the bowl when you get home from work, you're probably over-feeding.

I have used Cat Mix for quite sometime. My kitties have never complained abourt he flavor. I would recommend this product for. Their coats are so soft. But do give your kiiy enzymes as well.

I had seen two kittens if they are small in one house or one large adult cat. I use sterilized wheat straw in the house I buy from Amazon.

Hi Rosey, I would think so, I had a cat a few years ago lived to be very old and I gave her liver snaps,she loved them. Try a little at first if she eats them then she must like it. Cats are a lot fussier Then dogs (my personal opinion) If it was bad for them I would think they would say for dogs only.Hope this was of some help Rosey. Good Luck.

3 Kittens and they all like the strings, mostly to swat, a couple of them try to chew on them and have torn a string or two. They also bite the edge of the tube from time to time, something that worried me as it is metal I think but they don't do it often and are usually interrupted by another kitten pouncing on them or running through the tube.

YES! MAJOR health problems. One of my cats ended up apparently eating some of the pellets and was blocked in his intestines by it. He was in so much pain, it was horrific to watch. After being rushed to the ER vet, having the mass surgically removed and costing us over $1,500 he is thankfully safely home. When I called the company to find out the ingredients to let the veterinarian know (they wanted to know the possibility of it breaking up on its own), I was told that it had a CONCRETE base and could be equated to eating GRAVEL/ROCKS and would not dissolve on its own with the reputation of blocking cats, dogs, and even toilets. Since it is concrete based, it perforated the sides of his intestines as it scraped down before getting lodged and the vet had to act extremely fast as his temp was spiking out of control. I got lucky because my cat survived, but for the sake of your pets please avoid this litterbox.

It's not going to cause any harm. It's a probiotic. Just see to it that your kitty that needs it gets it. The other kitties will only benefit as well. It has really made a difference in my kitty. I am so grateful to the vet who recommended it.

I don't use it anymore because my cat died after 18 yrs. but I also looked for alternatives and I think anything that doesn't drop through the holes would work. I will be looking for an alternative when I get another cat. Love the system, but the pellets are too rough on their paws. I say try it!!

My cat doesn't eat it. I would not use it for kittens. It does have an added fragrance but I use a coveted box and smell nothing. My wife has a very sensitive nose and she can't smell anything either. Lasts a long time! Great stuff. I buy it over and over.
