Purr-fect picks for your feline friend

Smart scoops for a cleaner home

Choosing the right cat litter is essential for your cat's health and your home's freshness. Our recommended litters are selected for their commitment to animal-free testing and their positive impact on both your cat's well-being and the environment. Explore our budget-friendly options that make keeping your cat's space clean and comfortable a breeze.

If you are looking for a good clay litter for your cat, Totally Feline™ / Totally Feline CC™ recommends Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat Clay Litter.

Over the years, Totally Feline™ has gained extensive experience working with different litter textures and types. Research also indicates that unscented clay litter is often the preferred choice for both cats and their pet parents. However, not all clay litters are created equal—some perform better than others.

When Totally Feline™ evaluates clay litter, we look for:

• 99.9% dust-free formula
• Unscented ingredients
• Low tracking
• And most importantly, how our cats respond to the litter

Of all the clay litters Totally Feline™ has tested, Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat Clay Litter remains the favorite in our household of felines. The brand offers a variety of litter textures designed to meet the needs of different cats. From sensitive cats and seniors to kittens and cats with specific health needs.

Tidy Cats Clay Litter is a close second and can be a great option for households looking for a more budget-friendly choice.

However, just because the Totally Feline™ Clowder prefers a particular litter does not mean it will be your cat’s favorite. Your feline family member is always the ultimate judge. 🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱👍🏿

Cat Water Fountain 

Keep Your Feline Hydrated: The Benefits of Water Fountains

Even though cats evolved from desert dwellers and require less water than dogs, the average domestic cat still isn't getting enough hydration. Their ancestors consumed a significant amount of moisture through their prey; however, the modern cat’s diet often consists of dry kibble containing only 10% to 12% water.

To increase your cat's water intake, consider adding a water fountain to your home. Studies suggest that most cats prefer flowing water over the stagnant water found in a traditional bowl.

If a fountain fits your budget, Totally Feline ™ Totally Feline CC™ highly recommends purchasing one. Here are a few key benefits:

• Encourages Drinking: Particularly helpful for cats that are traditionally "water-shy."
•  Greater Appeal: Moving water is more enticing to a cat’s natural instincts than a stationary bowl.
• Reduces Mess: Discourages cats from "batting" at the water and splashing it onto your floors.
•  Soothing Environment: The sound and movement of a fountain can be calming for many cats.
•  Prevents Whisker Stress: Fountains often provide easier access than deep, narrow bowls.
•  Cleaner Water: Continuous filtration keeps water fresher than a standing bowl.
•  Health Benefits: Increased hydration helps prevent dehydration, urinary tract infections, and kidney disease.

Managing Noise Sensitivity

Some cats may be startled by the sound of the motor. If your cat is hesitant, you can acclimate them by:

Running the fountain for short periods at a time.

Increasing usage once your cat displays signs of relaxation, such as a soft body posture when approaching the fountain.

Hydration Goals

Cats are notorious for drinking only when they feel a physical "thirst" cue. Most veterinarians recommend that a cat drink 1 ounce of water per pound of body weight daily.

However, every cat is unique. It is crucial to give your pet a choice by offering both a water fountain and stationary bowls in different locations throughout your home. Multiple watering stations are highly recommended, especially in multi-cat households.

Maintenance Tip: Don’t forget to replace the filter every 2 to 4 weeks (more frequently if you have multiple cats) to ensure the highest water quality for your feline family members.

Funn Fact: Did you know that cat water fountains can also be a great water source for indoor birds?
