This litter is built to fix both.\n\nHard clumping that survives scooping\nNatural sodium-free bentonite forms clumps that hold their shape when you lift them. Cheaper litters add sodium to fake a harder clump — it produces a cement-like mass that is unsafe if your cat ingests it while grooming. We don't add it. You get a firm clump that scoops out whole, so the clean litter underneath stays clean and the bag lasts longer.\n\nActivated charcoal for ammonia, not perfume\nThe smell that builds in a closed flat is ammonia from urine breaking down. Fragrance masks it for a few hours. Activated charcoal adsorbs it. That's the difference between a tray that smells fine on day one and a tray that still smells fine on day ten.\n\n99% dust-free, soft on paws\nLess airborne dust when you pour and when your cat digs. This matters for cats with respiratory sensitivity, for kittens, and for anyone who keeps the litter box in a bedroom or bathroom — which, in most Indian apartments, is exactly where it ends up.\n\nSpecifications\nType: Natural sodium-free bentonite clay with activated charcoal\nPack size: 5kg\nClumping: Hard clumping\nDust level: 99% dust-free\nColour: White\nSuitable for: All cat breeds, kittens 4 months and above\nDisposal: Flushable option available\nMade in: India\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheck Other Products \u0026amp; Collections \u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eBentonite Litter: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.gigo.co.in\/collections\/cat-litter\" title=\"Cat Litter\"\u003eCat Litter page\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePine-Wood Cat Litter: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.gigo.co.in\/products\/pine-wood-cat-litter-6l\" title=\"Pine wood cat litter\"\u003epine wood litter\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCatnip: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.gigo.co.in\/products\/kashmiri-catnip-50ml\" title=\"Catnip\"\u003eKashmiri catnip\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDental Chew Sticks: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.gigo.co.in\/products\/cat-dental-chew-sticks-6pcs\" title=\"Dental Chew Sticks\"\u003edental chew sticks\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScratchers: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.gigo.co.in\/products\/jute-cat-scratching-mat-28x80cm\" title=\"Scratchers\"\u003escratching mat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQs\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow much litter does one cat need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\nA 5kg bag typically lasts one cat about 3 to 4 weeks with daily scooping. Keep a depth of 5 to 7 cm in the tray — too shallow and clumps stick to the base, too deep and you waste litter. Scoop once daily and do a full change every 3 to 4 weeks.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow to switch your cat to a new litter\u003c\/strong\u003e\nCats reject sudden changes. Mix 25% new litter with 75% old for three days, then 50\/50 for three days, then 75\/25, then go fully new. Rushing this is the single most common reason a cat starts going outside the box.\n\nFrequently asked questions\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs bentonite cat litter safe for kittens?\u003c\/strong\u003e\nClumping bentonite is generally recommended for kittens over 4 months. Younger kittens sometimes eat litter while exploring, so a non-clumping or pellet litter is safer until they grow out of it.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan I flush this litter down the toilet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\nA flushable option is available, but in most Indian apartment plumbing we recommend against flushing clay litter — pipe diameters and water pressure vary a lot and clay can settle. Bag and bin it instead.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is my litter still smelling after a few days?\u003c\/strong\u003e\nAlmost always one of three things: the tray is too small for the cat, the litter depth is under 5 cm, or clumps are being left in for more than 24 hours. Fix depth and daily scooping first before switching brands.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eBentonite or pine wood — which should I buy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\nBentonite if you want maximum odour lock and the firmest clumps. Pine wood if you want the lowest dust, an eco-friendly option, and less tracking. Both are on our Cat Litter page.\u003c\/code\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cpre\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ccode\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is this different from cheaper bentonite litter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Two things: no added sodium, and activated charcoal. Sodium fakes a harder clump but is unsafe if ingested. Charcoal adsorbs ammonia rather than masking it with fragrance.\u003c\/code\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre\u003e\u003ccode\u003e\u003c\/code\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre\u003e\u003ccode\u003e\u003c\/code\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54006577922340,"sku":null,"price":620.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/9764\/5092\/files\/image1.png?v=1779180510","url":"https:\/\/www.gigo.co.in\/products\/bentonite-cat-litter-activated-charcoal-5kg","provider":"GIGO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
