Comparison of plant-based litters
Comparison of mineral litters
There are several types of cat litter: plant-based or mineral (including silica crystal litter), absorbent or clumping. Each has its own advantages, to be discovered through our comparison.
Coco Premium (MAJ Distribution)
The litter plant-based absorbent Coco Premium, made from coconut fibers, offers a high absorption capacity. It has the added advantage of being sold in a 20L bag, promising a very long usage duration, approximately 8 weeks. 100% ecological, it is entirely possible to place this litter in your garden compost. Moreover, it is odorless, ultra-light, and does not create any dust.
Odor Control (Octave Nature)
The clumping plant-based litter Odor Control, made from recycled barley, eliminates the most persistent odors while preventing bacterial development. Natural and biodegradable, it generates no dust. This litter is very clumping, very easy to maintain, and allows for very distinct detection of soiled areas.
ÖkoPlus (Cat’s Best)
The clumping plant-based litter ÖkoPlus is made from renewable plant fibers sourced from untreated spruce and pine, harvested from sustainable forests. PEFC certified, it is 100% ecological and compostable. Its high absorption capacity guarantees impeccable hygiene, even for long-haired cats. Non-stick and highly efficient, it ensures optimum comfort for your cat and its owners, thanks to its odor-destroying power. Liquids and odors are durably retained by the Fibres 700 technology, without any chemical elements or artificial additives. Very easy to maintain, it forms very easily detectable urine clumps. A simple scoop is enough to remove them. The cleanliness and hygiene of the tray are maintained for 4 to 6 weeks.
Pure Cat Mineral Absorbent (Zolux)
The absorbent mineral Pure Cat litter, made from natural clay, efficiently absorbs moisture and offers a pleasant scent. Antibacterial, it preserves your cat's health. It is suitable for all cats, even the most sensitive ones. Urine is well highlighted, allowing for easy scooping. In addition, it has few dust traces and is very economical.
The silica crystal Magic Clean litter, composed of a mix of zeolites and natural or synthetic minerals, offers a completely neutral smell. The crystals become transparent when the cat urinates on them, which is very practical for spotting and removing them. Anti-allergic and antibacterial, this litter provides good moisture absorption and optimal hygiene without releasing any dust.
The Silica Pearl litter offers unbeatable quality-price ratio. Its white and blue crystals have a very high absorption rate thanks to their numerous pores. As a result, liquids are absorbed very quickly, odors retained, and bacterial proliferation minimized. Furthermore, this litter does not stick to paws and does not release any dust likely to disturb your cat or soil the house. This litter lasts longer than a traditional litter. The crystals become transparent when the cat urinates on them, which is very practical for spotting and removing them.
