Most cat lovers don’t realize where litter comes from. Like coal, it
is mined. Strip mined. After being dug up, it’s processed, packaged,
and trucked (most of the cost of a sack of litter is in transport) to
stores where we buy and lug it home. Our cats contaminate it. The mess
is saved until we get around to dumping it into plastic bags and
trashing that. The offensive litter packaged in plastic, finally
returns to the earth to become part of the landscape of landfill.
Last year, cat owners in the US purchased 1.7 billion dollars worth of
litter. That’s about 8 Billion pounds of litter in one year. Since
1947, when this mined clay was first used for cats, the amount of
contaminated litter now in landfills has piled to incalculable
amounts. Hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of tons of this waste
product continue to pollute the environment. CatGenie offers a clean,
safe solution.
The US Environmental Protection Agency recommends that pet owners
separate solid pet waste, without the litter, and flush it down the
toilet. Waste from home drains and toilets goes to water treatment
plants for proper decontamination. CatGenie complies with the EPA.

Cats are instinctively clean. They wash themselves and they cover
their waste. Cats in the wild have an endless supply of fresh sand.
Domestic cats have litter boxes and the endless labor of their owners.
The secret to CatGenie is simply brilliant. Cat-comfy, permanent
Washable Granules. Made from special recycled plastics and organic
materials, they are 100% safe. Unlike plastics that take decades to
break down, CatGenie Granules biodegrade in landfills within two years
and in septic systems within 9 months. The Granules never need
changing. Some will be lost as they may stick to solids. An occasional
replenishment is all that’s needed.
Sand does not clean. In fact, a recent study proved that germs and
bacteria are more prevalent and last longer on a beach than in
seawater.
CatGenie uses a cat-safe veterinarian approved sanitizing solution and
fresh cold water. Water use is an extra toilet flush a day per cat.
Lets get out of the sand trap and stop contaminating landfills with
cat waste.
