Here’s Why PrettyLitter is a Lifesaver for Older Cat Owners

With my cat, Luna, and myself entering our mature years, we’re learning how to figure out this whole “senior” thing together. Luna’s face is going grey and she switched to a new diet, and I now have two brand new hips.

After my first hip replacement, I bounced back faster than my doctor said I would, so it was a shock when the second hip took forever. Even doing the recovery exercises, I was limping for several weeks and driving was completely out of the question. I had groceries delivered, but my biggest struggle was lugging around these giant 20lb. bags of kitty litter. It’s not easy to buy small bags in bulk online, so when someone at the pet store mentioned PrettyLitter, a lightweight litter shipped straight to their home – I had to know more.

PrettyLitter is delivered to your doorstep in four or six pound bags and only needs to be changed once a month. I was worried Luna would be upset with stinky litter, but this litter doesn’t clump; it absorbs and eliminates moisture, so you don’t have to change it as much. I’m going from buying kitty litter twice a month and changing it once a week to both buying and changing it just once a month.

The litter’s a beautiful white, but there’s a reason it’s called PrettyLitter; it changes colors. It’s like a mood ring, but for your cat’s body. A few months ago, I saw a bright blue spot in the middle of Luna’s litter. She’d missed the litter box the day before, but other than that, she hadn’t been acting any differently. I brought her to the vet, and it turns out she had a urinary tract infection, poor kitty. She wasn’t in pain very long and we were able to catch it early because of PrettyLitter’s color detection. After that incident, I’m never going back to clumping litter. Green, yellow, and red colors will appear depending on other issues your cat might be having.

I’m barely scooping anymore! I do my daily check to scoop the poop, but this formula absorbs the urine, so there are no clumps to pick up. I do less work and I feel like a better cat mom because I’ve got a home vet in my cat’s litter box to tell my what’s wrong. It’s also got odor control, and as much as I adore being a cat mom to my Luna, I do not miss the smell of having a cat. It’s virtually dust-free, too, so I don’t find myself holding my breath to avoid sneezing while cleaning out the box.

PrettyLitter solved my main issue with purchasing cat litter and an issue I didn’t even know I had. My beautiful Luna may not be able to talk, but she is able to communicate with me when she’s sick. I highly recommend PrettyLitter to all the Cat Parents out there, so you can relax and rest safe that your kitty is doing just fine.
