When a cat urinates on the cat litter, there will be some white foam in the cat litter. This situation may be due to the poor quality of cat litter, which will melt after urine absorption. This cat litter is easy to paste into a ball after absorbing a lot of urine. If this situation is found, it is suggested to replace other cat litter with better quality, so how to distinguish the quality of cat litter?
1. Coagulation and water absorption
Good cat litter should have coagulation and water absorption, so as to better unify urine and feces and facilitate cleaning. First pour water into the cat litter and observe its shape to judge the quality of the cat litter. Generally, cat litter will show several States after being poured into water, namely, flake, inverted triangle, cylinder and regular triangle.
The flaky cat litter proves that the water falls on the surface of the cat litter and is completely absorbed, forming a flake, indicating that the cat litter has strong water absorption. Inverted triangles are more absorbent than cylinders, and cylinders are more absorbent than regular triangles. Regular triangle cat litter, water flows from top to bottom, and the water absorbed in the middle is extremely limited, so that all the water falls to the bottom of the cat litter basin, forming a regular triangle, and the cat owner has to clean the cat litter basin with difficulty.
2. Deodorization ability identification
Deodorization ability can be divided into covering, decomposition and adsorption. Covering, many ordinary cat litter is deodorized by adding spices. When there are more perfume molecules than odor molecules, the odor can't be smelled temporarily, but when it reaches saturation, the odor molecules increase, which makes it difficult to cover it up.
Decomposition-type, high-grade ore is deodorized mainly by adding bactericide, which kills or inhibits the growth of bacteria hidden in excrement and causes odor, and naturally there is no odor.
Adsorption, which is the latest patented technology, deodorizes by adding activated carbon. Based on the principle that activated carbon absorbs odor, the odor is locked in activated carbon particles, so as to achieve the purpose of deodorization.
The quality of cat litter is generally distinguished from its water absorption, water absorption and deodorization ability. The realization degree of high-quality cat litter in these three aspects is much higher than that of inferior cat litter. Therefore, choose cat litter and try to meet these three conditions. Personally, I think miaoxiang tofu cat litter is good.
