🚨🐱 Did You Know? Avoiding the Litter Box Can Become a Medical Emergency

Cats are incredibly clean animals. If a cat suddenly stops using their litter box, it's often a sign that something is wrong — and it's not behaviour that should be ignored.

Holding urine for too long can increase the risk of:
⚠️ Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
⚠️ Bladder stones
⚠️ Painful bladder inflammation (FLUTD)
⚠️ Urinary blockages — a life-threatening emergency, especially in male cats

Warning signs to watch for:
• Straining in the litter box
• Frequent trips with little or no urine
• Crying or discomfort when toileting
• Excessive licking of the ge***al area
• Hiding, lethargy or vomiting

💡 A cat that hasn't urinated for 24 hours requires immediate veterinary attention.

One of the most common reasons cats avoid the litter box is cleanliness. Regular scooping, appropriate litter choice and maintaining a hygienic litter area can make a huge difference.

🐾 Healthy litter habits are about more than convenience — they're an important part of a cat's overall health and wellbeing.

🧼🐱 Tips for Managing Litter Box Odour Effectively

Did you know that odour control starts with routine — not just the litter itself?

Here are three simple tips to share with customers 👇

✔ Scoop solid waste daily
✔ Remove clumps regularly
✔ Clean around the litter area to prevent urine residue build-up

Even the best litter can struggle if odour-causing bacteria are allowed to accumulate.

💡 That's why we're excited to introduce the new EcoPro Supreme Cat Urine & Odour Eliminator.

Designed specifically for pet households, this advanced bio-enzymatic cleaner:
• Breaks down urine residue and organic waste at the source
• Helps eliminate lingering odours
• Assists in reducing repeat marking behaviour
• Supports a fresher, more hygienic litter area

🎁 This month only: Buy a bag of Kit Cat Soya Clump and receive a FREE trial bottle of EcoPro Supreme Cat Urine & Odour Eliminator.

A cleaner litter area = a happier cat and a fresher home 🐾

🐱 Did You Know? Cats Need More Than One Litter Box

A common rule recommended by feline behaviourists is:

📦 One litter box per cat, plus one extra

That means:
• 1 cat = 2 litter boxes
• 2 cats = 3 litter boxes
• 3 cats = 4 litter boxes

Why? 👇

Cats are naturally clean and territorial animals. Having enough litter boxes helps:
✔ Reduce accidents outside the box
✔ Minimise competition between cats
✔ Lower stress in multi-cat households
✔ Encourage consistent litter box use

💡 Many litter box problems aren't caused by the litter itself — they're caused by not having enough litter boxes available.

A little extra space can make a big difference to a cat's comfort and confidence 🐾

🐱 Did You Know? Whisker Fatigue Is Real

A cat’s whiskers are highly sensitive — with up to 17,000 nerve endings per cm².

When eating from deep or narrow bowls, their whiskers constantly touch the sides, causing:
* Stress and irritation
* Discomfort during feeding
* Sometimes even reduced appetite

💡 This is called whisker fatigue

👉 The solution: shallow, wide bowls that don’t touch the whiskers

The 200ml Sensibowl is designed exactly for this 👇
✔️ Wide, whisker-friendly shape
✔️ More comfortable feeding experience
✔️ Supports calmer mealtime routines

🥛🐱 Why is Goat’s Milk So Good for Cats?

Goat’s milk is becoming a popular addition to feline nutrition — and for good reason 👇

💡 It’s naturally:
✔ Highly digestible
✔ Gentle on sensitive stomachs
✔ Nutrient-dense
✔ Supportive of gut health

Combined with real deboned chicken or fish, it creates a moisture-rich meal that supports:
• Healthy digestion
• Hydration
• Urinary health
• Immune support

🐾 Many cats also find goat’s milk extremely palatable — making it a great option for fussier eaters or cats needing extra encouragement at mealtime.

Comfort feeding starts with ingredients that are easy to enjoy and easy to digest 💛

🐱 Did You Know? Cats Benefit from Both Wet and Dry Food

Feeding a mix of wet and dry gives cats the best of both worlds 👇

Why wet food matters:
* Supports hydration (cats naturally drink less)
* Helps prevent urinary & kidney issues
* Higher protein, lower carbs
* More palatable for picky eaters

Why dry food matters:
* Helps reduce tartar build up
* Easy to store and serve
* Can be left out for grazing
* More cost-effective

💡 Combo-feeding = balanced routine
Hydration + dental support + convenience

👉 Tip: Introduce slowly by mixing small amounts over a few days

🐾 Kit Cat dry food range supports this balance — plus a FREE Sensibowl this month with the purchase of a 1.2kg bag of Kit Cat Classic Cuisine Dry Food

Better feeding = better long-term comfort 🐾
