How to Choose Paper Cat Litter: A Practical Comparison Guide
Paper cat litter is gaining popularity for being lightweight, eco-friendly, and safe for cats with sensitivities. But not all paper litter is the same. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the three main types of paper cat litter, their pros and cons, and how to choose the right one based on your needs.
📌 What Is Paper Cat Litter?
Paper cat litter is made from recycled paper—usually old newspapers or cardboard—that is sterilized, pulped, and reformed into various shapes. It’s a biodegradable alternative to clay-based litter and offers better dust control and gentler textures for sensitive cats.
