On average, one bag lasts about a month for one cat, with many households getting up to 40 days of use. Actual usage can vary depending on your cat’s habits, the size of your litter box, how deep you fill it, and how often it’s used. Some cats are light users, some are… not. We plan for both.

• Really Great Cat Litter, Charcoal: Soybean Fiber, Calcium Carbonate, Corn Starch, Pea Fiber, Activated Carbon.
• Really Great Cat Litter, Lavender: Soybean Fiber, Calcium Carbonate, Corn Starch, Pea Fiber, Dried Lavender.

A small amount of liquid will cause it to harden slightly, but submerged in water it completely breaks down.

We have lots of septic customers, it works fine so long as you flush in small amounts at a time, it completely breaks down in water.

It disintegrates completely in water so it's fine unlike other "flushable" products that are just marketed like that.

Toxoplasmosis is incredibly rare for indoor cats as it's obtained by eating infected rodents or birds: https://www.tuftandpaw.com/blogs/cat-guides/toxoplasmosis-in-cats-everything-you-need-to-know But still a good idea for folks to check with their local municipalities to confirm restrictions.

Most self-cleaning litter boxes are designed for fine, clay-style litters and haven’t quite caught up to natural, pellet-based litters like tofu. Because of that, this litter may not work reliably in many automatic systems. If you're open to manual scooping, we'd recommend our Cove Litter Box, which has a built-in wide-slatted scoop and anti-stick plastic and works well with Really Great Cat Litter.

When unopened, Really Great Cat Litter is best used within 24 months of its production date (printed on the bag). Once opened, we recommend using the litter within 3-6 months to reduce exposure to humidity and ensure peak performance. If you plan to use it beyond that window, reseal the bag tightly and store it in a cool, dark, dry place.

Both of our formulas offer the same great benefits, with the main difference being scent. Really Great Cat Litter, Charcoal is unscented, and absorbs odor naturally with activated carbon. Really Great Cat Litter, Lavender is lightly scented with real dried lavender petals.

Unlike most scented litters that use synthetic fragrances or concentrated essential oils, our lavender formula is scented with real dried lavender petals. This provides a natural, gentle scent that respects your cat's sensitive sense of smell while still helping with odor control. We designed it specifically to be mild and pleasant, not overwhelming.

Many scented litters use synthetic fragrances or concentrated essential oils that can be too strong for cats' sensitive noses. Our lavender formula is different—we use only crushed dried lavender petals for a very gentle, natural aroma that prioritizes your cat's comfort and safety while still providing effective odor management. In fact, lavender in appropriate forms is used by veterinary professionals for calming hospitalized cats and providing enrichment in shelter environments

Lavender toxicity concerns stem from a few scientific studies looking at direct skin contact with concentrated essential oils, which is completely different from our litter. We use dried lavender petals, not essential oils, and only at a tiny 1% concentration—all bound inside dust-free pellets. A cat would have to eat thousands of pounds to reach any concerning level!

Certainly! The formulas are essentially the same except for the charcoal vs. lavender components, so they offer the same benefits. That said, mixing the two will mean you'll smell less of the lavender aroma.

Curious pets sometimes nibble litter, but Really Great Cat Litter is not meant for animal or human consumption. Eating a large amount can cause a blockage. If you think your pet has eaten a large quantity or shows vomiting, lethargy, discomfort or other unusual behavior, stop use immediately and contact your vet.

To help your cat learn it’s litter, not food, transition slowly. Gradually mix small amounts of Really Great Cat Litter with your usual litter over four weeks. Then empty the box fully and refill it with 1-2 inches of Really Great Cat Litter. If your cat keeps eating it at any point, stop use. For dogs, keep the litter box out of reach.
