CAT LOVEPURR

What’s the best cat litter for a cat on steroids (he pees a LOT)?

My cat has asthma and is on monthly prednisone shots, and consequently pees quite a lot. I have been trying to find the best ecologically neutral, dust free, non-tracking, easy to use litter. I’ve tried Yesterday’s Papers, which just turned into mush. Feline Pine, and all corn-based ones (worlds best, etc) bothered me for misusing natural resources, plus didn’t work well. Swheat Scoop worked well but was again not good on resources, plus was really expensive (altho that would be the criteria I would give on) Tidy cats tracks and has dust. Right now I’m using PaPurr, which is recycled paper in a form that closely resembles clumping clay litter. It is environmentally good, doesn’t track too much, isn’t too expensive and has no dust, but I have to change the entire box every other day (scooping at least 2x a day), which should not be the case with clumping litter. Plus, I can only find it at PetSmart and online at PetDirect. Does anyone have any better recommendations? Tx!

World’s Best Cat litter. It’s expensive but it works and is ecologically friendly. I too had a cat on pred.

Have you considered trying to convert him to inhaled steroids? It took quite a while to convince my cat to convert (close to a year on and off) but it was worth it. A decrease in the urination and increased thirst. Also, the lowered risk of steroid related problems was definitely worth it. I didn’t believe that I could convert Simon as he is a “feisty” cat at best. This, of course, translates into a scruffed, masked and quickly examined cat

Just some info on inhaled meds:
