Having a cat at home implies that you have to take a series of cares, the most important is to keep your litter box clean, and it must be located in a place with good lighting and ventilation.
This will improve the cleanliness of your home and that of your pet.
This gesture will keep your cat away from certain diseases, so it is essential to choose a suitable litter, clean it daily and change it when necessary.
From Glu Glu Pet we recommend the following litters:

The main thing in your house is that you must have a cleaning routine.
Ideally, your cat's waste should be picked up daily, so the droppings don't accumulate.
Changing the litter, at Glu Glu Pet we recommend changing it once or twice a week if it is absorbent litter, but if it is clumping litter it can last two to four weeks.
THE BEST LITTER BOXES AND TRAYS FOR YOUR CAT AND EASY TO CLEAN:
Cats need to relieve themselves in their own bathroom.
The clumping litters are made up of a clay called bentonite, and are characterized by having the ability to generate a compact mass when they come into contact with your cat's urination, so their daily removal is very easy.
The absorbent litters (the cheapest and that everyone buys), are made up of sepiolite, a very absorbent porous mineral but, since it is not a binder. requires more frequent changing to keep it dry and clean.
To clean your cat's litter box, the first thing you have to do is empty it and place the waste in a plastic or paper bag.
Hot water is poured into the box and soap is added. Let the soap and water soften the dirt for 10 to 15 minutes.
With the help of a scourer or brush clean the box, remove the water and rinse with cold water.
Dry with a cloth or paper and place the new litter inside the box.
Glu Glu Pet recommended litter boxes and trays:
At Glu Glu Pet we recommend closed litter boxes that are easy to clean, where your cat will enter and have the greatest privacy, but above all, you will not have strong odors at home, essential for proper hygiene of your cat and your home.
Always keeping your cat's litter box clean will prevent it from suffering from diseases.
Wet litter boxes, with fecal material and poorly ventilated, favor the appearance of urinary diseases in the feline due to the proliferation of bacteria in the sand.
Parasitic pathologies such as toxoplasma can also develop, whose trigger would be found in the feces, so by removing them we avoid parasitosis in the cat and in ourselves, since it is a transmittable condition.
The most important thing is to pick up the cat's waste daily, so that it does not accumulate and the ammonia in a cat's urine causes the strong smell in the environment to accumulate, leaving the respiratory tract exposed to irritability.
Cats are very clean animals, if the sand is not according to their taste, they could stop using it, causing a change in their behavior that could affect the number of urinations or the place where they relieve themselves, going to do it in the soil or on plants.
That is why we at Glu Glu Pet insist that it is very important to clean the litter box or tray daily.
