Feline Pine is compressed pellets of recycled pine. As the cat urinates, the pellets break down into sawdust. Scoop the poop daily with a slotted scooper that allows for most of the unused pellets to go back into the litter box. Then you flush the kitty poop.* Give the box a shake to settle the dust on the bottom and the pellets on top. Change litter when most of the pellets have been used up.

*Important note: If you live in a coastal area, dispose of cat feces in the trash rather than the toilet. Why? Cat feces is harming sea otters. Learn more at Feline Pine.

There are several reasons I like this litter:

•It’s natural. Really, it’s made of pine! (Pressurized to remove harmful wood oils.)

•100 percent recycled. No trees harmed.

•Smells good even after it gets deluged with cat pee.

•It’s biodegradable and renewable. (Unlike clay litter which does not decompose.)

•100 percent chemical free. No fragrance needed.

•There’s no horrible silica dust like with clay litter. That’s better for kitty and you.

•Size of pellets reduces chance of feline ingestion while grooming.

There’s really only one thing I don’t like about it:

Once it’s almost time for a litter change, the tracking is pretty bad. They make a special self-cleaning litter box to eliminate this problem, but Choco is at home in his existing litter box, which is more private.

What to try it? Feline Pine makes it easy with a free bag rebate for new users.

Have you used this or other green cat litters? What did you think?
