Pros and cons of filler

The main advantages of Katsan are undoubtedly the high environmental friendliness and effectiveness of this filler. Manufacturers claim that the absorbency of porous granules is very high and three times higher than that of other popular brands. Is it only the widespread publicity of a hygiene product that makes it so popular?

Before you buy a Catsan and start using it, carefully read the instructions

The famous bactericidal formula of Extra Mineral Protection of the filler allows you to keep the tray clean and block the growth of dangerous bacteria

The absorbent properties of American filler are also beyond praise - they meet all the latest high requirements for hygiene of pets. The manufacturer is constantly improving its products, and hypoallergenicity has become one of the additional advantages of Katsan.

In especially fluffy cats, the absorbent Catsan, when wet, can stick to the paws

Another of the advantages of this product is that it is suitable for cats of all breeds, without restrictions on age and size. Is that for long-haired breeds it is better to choose not the absorbent, but the clumping variety of "Katsana". Interestingly, if two or even more cats live in your family, they usually agree to use a common litter box with Catsan, which is not always possible with other fillers.

Varieties of fillers "Katsan"

Katsan is offered to customers in two main versions: absorbent and clumping. The brand has small packages, and thanks to this, you can experiment: which of the types of litter the cat will like more and will be more convenient for its owner to use.

Do not rush to open the package - open it correctly

The famous American brand has taken care not only of adult animals, but also of babies - the product line includes a specialized filler for kittens. It is worth paying attention to a brand new product - hygienic "mats" with filler, which are replaceable Catsan blocks for a cat litter box.

Hygienic mats have a volume of 4 liters; it is very convenient to use these replaceable units

Clumping

The Catsan Clump (Ultra) comes in handy bags designed in blue, yellow and white; the package shows a scoop with a lump of used filler.

The clumping Catsan has a scoop on the box for cleaning the tray.

Katsan lumpy filler granules have a special microporous structure that allows them to stick together when wet into small dense lumps. It is very convenient to remove these lumps from the tray with a special scoop, leaving unused, clean filler there. Then, if necessary, you can simply pour some granules into the litter box so that the filler layer is even and not too thin.

The Clumping Catsan is the ultimate cat hygiene solution. This composition is absolutely safe even for the most demanding and allergic cats, since the granules are made from a natural, highly refined product - bentonite clay.

Absorbent

The bags in which Catsan is packaged with an absorbent type (Hygiene) are painted in blue-white-blue tones and are marked with a drip icon. This filler is in the form of small, light granules, compressed in such a way that their structure has a large number of micropores. It is the microporous structure that contributes to Catsan's super absorbent qualities.

Absorbent Catsan contains the following components:

• refined chalk;
• natural quartz sand;
• mineral supplements.

Catsan pellets are made from natural, environmentally friendly minerals

The absorbent Katsan is replaced in the tray as needed - when the white granules change their color to a dirty gray. Where only one cat uses the toilet, a standard portion of litter can last two or even three weeks if solids are removed in a timely manner; however, owners usually replace the contents of the tray every five to seven days.

Production cost

High quality, proven for decades, determines the considerable cost of Catsan brand products - this factor stops many buyers from purchasing. However, the correct use of the filler allows us to make it quite economical, and as a result, this product does not cost more than similar products from the middle price category. Moreover, buying large Catsan packages is much more profitable than buying small ones. In any case, the choice is yours - and, of course, your cat.

Table: the approximate price of some items of the Catsan brand

Variety of goods	Packing volume	approximate price
Hygiene	2.5 liters	240 rubles
Hygiene	5 liters	390 rubles
Hygiene	10 liters	650 rubles
Ultra	5 liters	660 rubles

What filler is better for a kitten

In the assortment of the Catsan brand there is also a filler specially made for kittens - for other brands this is a rarity. It has the same composition and properties as the "adult" Catsan, but with increased safety. Manufacturers made the granules tasteless so that babies would not be tempted to chew on them, and also carried out enhanced cleaning of the filler.

The requirements for products for kittens should be especially high

If you are purchasing a “dowry” for your baby, pay attention to the specialized Catsan litter - its packaging is marked with a special badge that says: “Ideal for kittens”.

How to properly use and dispose of the filler

In order for the filler to "work" with maximum efficiency, you just need to adhere to the instructions for using Catsan - it is detailed on each of its packaging. Follow simple rules - and your house will always be clean, and unpleasant odors are absolutely excluded.

For Catsan to be effective, follow its instructions.

1. Thoroughly wash the tray under hot running water - it is better not to use synthetic detergents, especially those containing aromatic fragrances.
2. Wipe a clean tray dry and pour the Catsan into it - the layer of filler should be at least five centimeters thick.
3. It is advisable to remove solid fractions or lumps of litter that appear in the tray in time - many cats are too squeamish to use litter that contains "foreign inclusions".
4. When adding fresh Catsan to the desired level, shake the tray slightly to mix and distribute the contents in an even layer.
5. You should completely replace the filler in the toilet only when all the granules are moistened or change color to a darker one.
6. If you have warm floors in your house, lay a warm rug under the tray - this will help block unwanted odors even more reliably, and the tray will become less slippery.
7. Gently pour the used Catsan into a bag and throw it out along with the rest of the trash - mineral fillers cannot be thrown into the toilet, this will clog the drain.

Store opened bags with filler in a place with low humidity and a temperature not exceeding 30 degrees Celsius.
