Best cat litter for kittens
Choosing the right litter for your kitten is crucial for their health and comfort.
300 grams. That’s the average weight of a kitten four weeks after being born. That’s about the same weight as a can of soup. The first four months of your kitten’s life, and yours, will be visits to the vet for rounds of vaccinations.
Kittens are small, defenseless and require extra support
At this very early stage, it is important to introduce them to the correct cat litter to ensure an element of continuity in their surroundings and to get them used to using it at an early stage. Older cats can be more ‘set in its ways’.
At this point in their life, kittens are extraordinarily vulnerable with under-developed immune systems, making them prone to illness and infections. They struggle to regulate their temperature and are likely to be transitioning to solid food from their mother’s milk. They are prone to matting if not groomed correctly. We could go on!
Best for your kitten: naturally antiseptic, dust-free, softer, with no chemical additives or silica
Kittilitt Cat Litter is made from 100% natural pine that is organically antiseptic. This is ideal for keeping your new kitten safe from bacterial infections at a very delicate stage, without the need for any chemical additives or compounds.
Made from natural pine, this litter is non-clumping and safer for your kitten if accidentally ingested, unlike traditional clay-based litter, which kittens are more likely to eat due to their curiosity.
Kittilitt Cat Litter is natural, and has a much softer texture compared to inferior clay-based litter. This softness reduces the risk of irritation or discomfort for kittens’ delicate paws.
It is also non-tracking, meaning your new kitten can explore the world (well, your kitchen and living room at least) without creating a mess behind it, providing you with a bit less time cleaning up and a bit more time to concentrate on socialisation and playing – preferably with your kitten rather than other people!
Kittilitt Cat Litter does not contain silica particles that can be as small as 0.01 micrometers; so small that they can bypass the cats (and your) immune system and can damage your kitten’s delicate respiratory tract. Sometimes, this irritation can progress and lead to life-long and debilitating chronic conditions like feline asthma or could just give your kitten general respiratory problems such as coughing, open-mouth breathing and sneezing.
Kittilitt Cat Litter is dust-free, which is crucial for maintaining the air quality for your kitten, particularly if you have an ‘enclosed’ litter box in your home.

“We’ve just got in more foster kittens, 5 semi-ferals, 6 months old, never laid eyes on a litter tray yet they took to Kittilitt Cat Litter like ducks to water.”

Kittilitt Cat Litter: combining quality, comfort, and sustainability in cat care
Kittilitt Cat Litter has been manufacturing cat litter since 2018 by using the ‘wobbly bits’ of spruce pine (think the top and bottom of the tree) that are de-barked, roasted to drive out the moisture, chipped, and turned into pellets at our factory in Girvan, along Scotland’s Clyde Coast.
Our commitment to making the best cat litter for kittens for your home or business is second to none.
