The History Of The Best Kitty Litter

Think Inside the Box

“In order to keep a true perspective of one’s importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him.” ~Dereke Bruce

Kitty litter has gone through many changes over the centuries seeing as how the original kitty litter was simply ashes put in a box. Owners were getting tired of there cat tracking black paw prints through there house and were looking for a new solution. One day in 1947, industrial absorbent producer Ed Lowe, took note of this problem and suggested clay to his neighbor. He knew clay would be more absorbent and wouldn’t track through the house. Seeing how pleased his neighbor was he thought that other cat owners would enjoy his product also.

Ed Lowe filled ten paper bags with his clay and decided to call it “Kitty Litter”. He took these bags to the local pet store. Thinking that people wouldn’t want to pay for the common dirt he told the shop owner to give it away for free. After a few samples, Cat owners loved Ed Lowe’s kitty litter and were more than willing to pay for it. Ed began going across the country advertising his product and the reactions were tremendous. In 1964 Ed Lowe created the brand Tidy Cats and began selling it in grocery stores across America.

Once sold in brown paper bags the Kitty Litter brand began researching new technology in their bags. They reduced the amount of dust in their bags and began to sanitize the litter to create a better environment for cats.

The secret to the ultra absorbent kitty litter is granulated Fuller’s Earth. Fuller’s Earth is the name used for a wide variety for clay minerals that can carry there own weight in water. The absorbency and chemicals in the clay help reduce the smell of ammonia but the best Kitty Litter manufacturers use other additives such as baking soda to mask the smell of kitty urine and feces.

Cats are attracted to the ease and and privacy of using a their best kitty litter box. Cats like to bury their excretes because of their instincts to hide their trail from other predators. Sense cats would likely be wanting to do something else they will keep going back to the place where it easiest for them to use the bathroom and bury their excretes.

“One cat just leads to another.” ~Ernest Hemingway
