CATDOLL : How often should cat litter be changed?

Cat litter is usually changed once a week, but it still depends on the material and quality of the cat litter. Cat litter that clumps needs to be changed more frequently, while cat litter with absorbent properties can be used longer. High-quality crystal cat litter is usually changed once a month. However, the quality of products varies. Some low-quality cat litters cannot achieve good results. The owner should often observe the changes in the cat litter. If there is a smell or the gray becomes larger, it should be replaced in time.

The consequences of not changing cat litter:

1. It will breed bacteria. If the excrement in the cat litter is not cleaned for a long time, a large number of bacteria will breed, and parasites may also occur, which is very unhygienic.

2. It will make cats sick. Cats excrete in unsanitary litter boxes, which can easily lead to infection with bacteria and parasites, and cause urinary tract diseases.

3. It will cause cats to urinate randomly. Cats are very clean animals. They have mysophobia and do not like to defecate in dirty litter boxes. They will look for other suitable places to defecate.
