Fact #1. It's hard to imagine, but until the middle of the 20th century, cat litter didn't exist. Animal lovers typically kept their feline friends outdoors in order to avoid dealing with their messes. When the weather got cold, however, owners were forced to let their cats in and would improvise. They'd set out materials like dirt and ashes.
Fact #2. Cats usually prefer using a litter box as opposed to, say, a smooth linoleum floor. This is tied into the fact that they're predatory animals. They need to keep a low profile in order to hunt effectively. With litter, cats are able to bury their waste, concealing its odor. This also explains why cats groom themselves non-stop. They don't want anyone to smell them coming.
Fact #3. Cats bury their waste for social purposes, too. Domestic cats are generally solitary creatures and can be quite territorial. They mark their turf to let other cats know exactly where they live and roam. Felines who choose to cross into another cat's territory do so at their own risk.
Fact #4. The two main types of litter are clumping and non-clumping. When used properly, both can help you keep your pet's potty inviting and sanitary. Clumping litter does just what you think. It solidifies your cat's waste into scoopable clumps. These are easy to sift out of the box when it comes time to clean. Non-clumping litter, on the other hand, simply soaks it up. It's main advantage is its odor-fighting qualities.
Fact #5. Many options come scented to mask unpleasant smells. Owners of stubborn cats will appreciate that there are options containing special cat-attracting fragrances to lure kitty in. If you aren't a fan of scented options, there are plenty of neutral litters that work just as well.
