SOYSAND can be used exactly like traditional Clay Litters.

For new cats and kittens:

BEFORE BRINGING YOUR NEW CAT OR KITTEN HOME, first fill your litter box with SOYSAND to a depth of 2"-3", and place it in the location you have designated for the litter box.

When you bring your Cat or Kitten home for the first time, place them directly into the litter box before letting them explore their new surroundings. This helps establish the place within the house that feels like "nature" (AKA the place where they can do their business).

For existing cats or kittens:

Our testing has shown that cats and kittens have no problem transitioning to SOYSAND as it is comfortable, and feels natural under their paws. For best results, completely empty, and wash your existing Litter box before adding 2"-3" of fresh SOYSAND.

If your Cat or Kitten is having a hard time transitioning to SOYSAND:

Cat's can be particular, and you may need to slowly transition your cat or Kitten from their existing litter, to SOYSAND. If this is the case, we recommending removing 1/3 of the existing litter, and replacing it with SOYSAND, then going forward, using SOYSAND to top off as needed. The next time you completely clean our your litter box, fill it with 1/3 of the old litter, and 2/3 of SOYSAND, and continue to top off with SOYSAND as needed. The next time you clean your litter box. Thoroughly wash and dry the litter box, and then fill it with SOYSAND only, and your cat or kitten should be familiar enough with SOYSAND to fully transition.

If you encounter instances where your cat fully and consistently rejects SOYSAND, we would love to hear from you. Please send us an email with a description of your efforts so we can learn from your experience and continue to improve SOYSAND in the future.

The answer to this question depends on how many cats you have, how many litter boxes you use, the bathroom habits of your cats, and how frequently you clean the litter box.

However for context, one 6lb bag is enough to fully fill a standard "large" litter box, or Litter Robot.

Depending on the frequency of cleaning, and top off's having another 6lb bag on hand is ideal.

Based on a single cat home with a large litter box, two 6lb bags should last 6-8 weeks without fully dumping and washing the litter box.

SOYSAND is made from the by-product created when manufacturing food grade Tofu.
This process was originally patented by a Japanese Inventor in 1995, and has since been improved upon for the past 20 years!

Since SOYSAND is made from the same By-product, it is considered sustainable or up-cycled, as its main ingredients aren't harvested from other natural resources.

Since SOYSAND is made of Soy and other natural ingredients, it is fully bio-degradable and will quickly break down into organic matter.

SOYSAND is vegan-friendly, and completely free of any animal products.

SOYSAND is Gluten-Free

SOYSAND is made from:

• Soy Pea Fiber (Tofu by-product)
• Corn Starch
• Guar Gum
• Pre-gelatinized* Starch (not gelatin)
• Antioxidants

*Pre-gelatinized Starch is different and unrelated to gelatin. It is a food additive that serves as a thickener. The starch can come from a variety of sources, including corn, waxy corn, potato, tapioca, or wheat.

Ingestion:

SOYSAND ingredients are completely safe and harmless if accidentally ingested.

However, if your cat or kitten appears to be consistently eating SOYSAND, please remove the litter and contact your veterinarian, as there may be other underlying health issues known to cause cats to eat their litter (regardless of the type).

Respiratory Health:

SOYSAND produces 99.9% less dust than traditional clay litters, and is safe for both humans and cats.

TOXOPLASMOSIS:

A parasite known as "TOXOPLASMA GONDII" can be found in some cat feces. This parasite can become airborne in the dust particles and lead to TOXOPLASMOSIS if inhaled. While SOYSAND reduces the risk of airborne transmission by 99.9% compared to traditional clay litters, pregnant women and immune suppressed individuals should still avoid cleaning the litter box. And users should always follow proper hygiene and thoroughly wash their hands after handling dirty litter.

SOYSAND has a shelf life of 24 months (2 years) from date of manufacture.

The date of manufacture is printed on the back of every bag of SOYSAND

SOYSAND can be used effectively in any litter box (manual or self-cleaning) that is designed to work with a clumping type litter.

Litter boxes made to be used with silica crystals, or pee pads may not be compatible with SOYSAND. Please check your Litter box's manual and recommended litter types before purchasing SOYSAND.

Note about self-cleaning litter boxes:
SOYSAND is compatible with self-cleaning litter boxes that use clumping litter. For Best Results: When using SOYSAND for the first time, please be sure to properly calibrate your machine to the fill weight of SOYSAND at the machines marked fill line.
Please note that, like all other litters, SOYSAND may stick to the liner of the machine from time to time, but will always fall off within 2-3 cycles. But unlike other litters that stick, SOYSAND's powerful odor control properties prevent clumps from producing noticeable odors. SOYSAND is also water soluble and any crust or build up can be easily soaked and wiped off with regular water.

If you are unsure if SOYSAND is compatible with your Litter box, please send us an email, and we can work with you to determine compatibility.

SOYSAND is highly water soluble, so it fully breaks down in a matter of minutes. Because of this, SOYSAND will not build up in your plumbing pipes, or cause issues when flushed.

HOWEVER, please check your local laws and regulations regarding pet waste. Some areas prohibit flushing non-human waste down the toilet as their treatment facilities are not able to filter out some parasites or bacteria known to be found in pet waste.
