Cat litter help

Post by Paul D »

Last time I bought Tesco cat litter I bought a lot of it, which has lasted me a couple of years. It was packaged in pink bags with handles. They've changed their packaging and I can no longer see which kind I need to get- I am ordering online so can't see it face to face, so to speak. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to which one is the non-clumping, molar clay, version?

The Bosai site is usually quickly updated with the latest bag pictures when they are changed Paul, therefore a quick look there usually alerts you to any changes.

For anything except seed sowing I have switched to the SaniCat product which has larger grains and produces a more open mix in my experience.

Its available from several of the large pet supply warehouses and there is a smaller bag if you just want to try it out.

Hope it's not a bad omen but I went to 2 Tesco branches at the weekend and neither had the requisite cat litter....
