When it comes right down to it, your pet will make the final choice. While some happy-go-lucky cats will accept whatever product is on sale this week, most are more fussy. Once you find a brand to your cat's liking, stick with it. You may first need to experiment with a few different types of litter, so start with the smallest packages available. Deodorized litter may sound appealing, but don't think it absolves you of your scooping duties. Furthermore, some cats are actually put off by the “clean” smell. Signs of discontent include excessive scratching or vocalizing around the litter-box location. Ignore this and your cat will find a definitive way to tell you he doesn't like your litter selection: The box will be clean, the floor dirty.
