Things You'll Need
- Bentonite Clay-based Scoopable Cat Litter
- Litter Box
- Dehumidifer
- Poop Scooper
Instructions
Pour a quarter cup of water into the litter box around a small clump formed by your cat's urine which is too difficult to pick up or is crumbling apart from dryness. Bentonite granules absorb liquids and expand to at least 15 times their original size. Pour the water in one place, forming a large mass which can be removed.
Stir the litter box granules with your pooper scooper after removing excrement to move the unused grains on the bottom of the box to the top where they will be able to absorb more moisture.
Run a dehumidifier in the room where the litter box is located on a daily basis for at least two hours in the morning, afternoon and evening. For best results, let the dehumidifier run continuously. If the room has high humidity, the bentonite granules will absorb moisture from the air, making them less effective at clumping together when doused with cat urine. Removing some of the moisture from the air will dry the granules, increasing their effectiveness.
