Man I broke this rule and went full bore after two to three days, I did have one Tofu and the other Worlds Best Litter at first. I got the Tofu like in ur vid from Tuff+Paw, I have some reservations on it still on these reason’s: - The Smell of it after they use it (urine) starts to smell kinda of fishy smells, definitely not odor free litter. - The costs per LB is like $3, making it the most expensive. - Clumping is very good like + 5 Stars - Dust barley + 4.5 Stars - Tracking also very good at + 5 Stars - Sifting thru the scooper I guess depending on what type you have, but mine it takes abit of shaking it first. So hope this helps anybody who had OCD with Corn, Grass or Clay type litter, especially the clay type which would breakup in multiple piece’s.

[@fauziahsaleh7490]

You are right. Tofu/Soya cat litter definitely not odor free litter. Its much more ammonia smelly compared to bentonite litter. I switched from bentonite to Tofu because my cats are indoor. They have their own room, so i wont take a risk anymore for them to inhale dust from silica and bentonite. Problem is ammonia smell is so strong for Tofu/Soya litter. Need to clean it up twice a day. But will not change it to another type of litter anymore. Because clumping is so so good 5++ stars. Low dust, and less tracking. 👍

Good to know! Thx.

[@sentino68]

I was really hoping to see an actual demo. This is info we all knew.

[@farahanisyaman9353]

I just got a free bag of tofu cat litter when I ordered a new litter box. I've seen a couple of my friends using it with their cat and swear by it but never got around to trying it. Thanks for the video. Straight to the point and very informative. I just poured some into the new litter box that I put beside the old one and my cat didn't want to go in so I plopped a few pieces of their feces from the old box on the tofu litter like you suggested and my cat immediately went in for a pee! Great success! ♥

[@kawaiicoookies]

great video!! i also recently switched to tofu cat litter and it’s a game changer!!!! no more little bags to dispose their waste in, just have to flush it down the toilet plus there’s little to no scatter anymore which saves me the trouble of having to clean up after every time my cat goes

[@vbg345]

I just ordered 3 bags and am eager to try it (I'm still finishing off an older litter purchase first). Looks like a perfect fit to go with your beautiful litter box (which I own and love).

[@bettyboop1524]

There is no way I'd ever flush cat litter of any kind down the toilet. My house is over 100 years old and the plumbing is also old with narrow pipes. I've had cats for many years and it never occurred to me to flush used litter down the toilet. I tried Garfield's cat litter and it made my cat smell weird, it's tofu and cassava (if I remember correctly). Corn litter often came with bugs in it. Crystal litter smells really bad - it was gross IMO. The best I have found is stall pine pellets from my local farm store, cheap, clean, no odor. So many choices now it's nuts.

[@tracyk8311]

I flush just the poop

[@MeralsChannel]

Is it safe for kittens? Thank you for your helpful video ❤

[@tannya___]

I’m a believer, it is the best thing in the world! Definitely will be switching brands to this one too because what I currently use, which is Wee Kitty, is not easily available. Thank goodness there’s this one, because I have been searching for a perfect alternative (possibly a better one). Nice to see everyone’s feedback

[@Marfmellow88]

I loooove the Pidan tofu litter. The only thing that I dislike is over time the tofu pelettes will crumble into a fine layer of dust at the bottom of the litter box. I don't like to waste the litter bc it is expensive so you have to get creative to get rid of the dust while keeping all the usable litter at the same time lol. Well worth it tho.

[@thesedamncats8141]

Tofu cat litter! Who knew? Not me till now :) Might need to give it a try.

[@nicholholodick6096]

Thank you! This was really helpful. So much I didn’t know about tofu cat littler. This sounds great for my cat with asthma.

[@tuftandpaw]

The low dust is such a game-changer! So much more comfortable for your cat.

[@jeanniemillsap7337]

So glad to get this info about the tofu litter. I watched the tracking video and am looking for something more natural than clay/clumping/regular litter that is bio degradable and better for the planet. I have asthma and litter dust is a real struggle for us folks so looking for help with that, too!

[@rabies7290]

With my first cat 5 years ago, I went with walnut litter, but didn't found that it clumped well, so I tried grass litter, which clumped better, but it tracked really badly. I wound up using a 50/50 mix which has been okay. My second cat has some allergies, but it's been hard to isolate what is contributing to them. Even though he is on a hydrolyzed protein diet, I wondered about the grass litter, because he also seems to flare up in the summer when he's outside in the yard a lot (enclosed yard--he's safe there). Because of that, I've been trying corn litter, silicone litter...and I'm wondering if tofu would be hypoallergenic.

[@therealcool1144]

I like it, I went from clay, to paper then to tofu. I have a hyrbid mix of paper and tofu. Really cost efficient and controls odour better.

[@PolymerJones]

Can someone answer if it is messy or not? Didn’t get a demo in this video

[@TheParot161]

Very informative video. I haven’t owned a cat in 40 years. But recently adopted a stray. So today has been dedicated to learning about litter boxes.😄. Can the clay litter be flushed into septic tanks? I guess the question is, will it mess up a septic tank?

[@nimitaw1167]

It shouldn’t be flushed

[@ginademarco8582]

I have a question. Does tofu cat litter attract phorid flies? I am currently having a problem with this. I'm currently using tidy cat litter.

[@mariyanarahmat]

Tell me abt it...i gave tried all kinds of litter, but ever since i had sinus...clumping clays gives too much dusts. I switch to this small tofu pellets and it has been great. I can even flush it im the toilet bowl without having to buy plastic bags for the litters. So far loving it!!!

[@tuftandpaw]

Thanks for sharing! We're so glad that tofu litter has been a good match for you :)

[@me4Videoz]

Thank you, I’m about to try this new litter for my two cats.😊

[@tuftandpaw]

Can’t wait to hear what you think! Remember that a slow and steady transition is key when making the switch :)

[@strekod8912]

Curious if your brand of tofu litter can be used in a shifting litter box?

[@tuftandpaw]

It's a clumping litter, so might be a bit tricky depending on the size of your cat's clumps! We recommend using with a litter scooper

[@bettyboop1524]

My biggest complaint with any so called natural litter is bugs, especially in the summer. Like most cat guardians I've tried so many different kinds of stuff and all have pros and cons. Currently using Garfield litter that is very small grain for the paws, but it does sure track. The other litter box is Fullers Earth and he readily uses that. I do like the pine pellets that I get at the local farm store, it is a bit hard so I'll spray lightly with water in the box to soften it up. Then of course there is the problem of finding what your cat has settled on and having to change it to what is available in your area.

[@sharene411]

What do you mean bug? What type, how? Bugs freak me out!

[@bettyboop1524]

@@sharene411 Ants were a big problem especially during the summer heat, I've found weird creepy crawlies right from the bag of fresh litter. I used to use WBCL until it became a big issue, switched back to clay, now I'm using pine cobbles that PetSmart carries or full sized pine pellets from my local farm store.

[@littlecatforever1]

Is it easy to tell that a cat has urinated in the box with the tofu litter? I am presently using paper pellets, and it is very difficult to tell whether or not the cat has actually urinated. Thanks!

[@tuftandpaw]

You should be able to notice a clump, depending on the brand. However, you could always just run your scoop through the litter box to see where the clumps might be hiding.

[@jehven]

Very informative - thank you!!!

[@cattrainfit8393]

Is tofu litter safe for robot boxes? Or do you have to use a regular box?

[@tuftandpaw]

It depends on the automatic litter box! Not all automatic litter boxes are compatible with every type of litter.

[@noodletoast]

My kitten she sprint out after every business. Would it help if I use this litter? Or would the problem remain? 😅

[@tuftandpaw]

Are you referring to litter tracking as the problem? If so, the combination of a low tracking litter PLUS a litter box with high sides might help. The high sides will help keep any litter that gets flung from her sprints IN the box instead of outside.

[@JacksonDCunningham]

Thanks for the advice!

[@Eliana_bestie]

Can I use tufo cat litter with the robot cats litter box?

[@dianavallejo2344]

I have two senior cats we have been together for 12 and 15 years I noticed that their paws are very dirty now and they have lots of litter between their toes. Overall what litter do you recommend to make them more comfortable I can tell they are uncomfortable with their usual litter

[@tuftandpaw]

If the main issue is having cat litter stuck between their paws, you might want to look for one with a bit of a larger pellet shape. However, too large and it may become uncomfortable. We genuinely think that "Really Great Cat Litter" is a perfect balance because it's the shape of long, thin cylindrical pellets that won't get stuck between their paw pads, but are also small enough to still be comfortable to step on. Let us know if you give it a try!

[@lborg960]

I have trouble concentrating on what you are saying when I see you pet your beautiful cat. He or she looks so happy. Anyways, just to let you know that I switched to Tofu Cat litter with Ecocatlitter. Thanks for the info.

[@tuftandpaw]

Aww Pepper will be flattered 🥰🥰 Glad you found this video helpful!

[@noreen6474]

I receive mine is it hard as a rock when sealed?

[@tuftandpaw]

Some tofu litters are air-sealed when packaged, which can end up looking like a firm rectangular brick

[@hippyhare798]

My roommate has seven cats and three more on the way kittens I mean and we’re going through like three litter boxes full of cat litter so I’d like to know more

[@jennifermurray1533]

Did you see the bird fly into the window behind the presenter? It was at the very end of the video. Cool.

[@knowbert]

no it didn't

[@luvhbears9504]

i ordered two packs and my cat keeps eating the iltter 🙂

[@tuftandpaw]

Oh no! Have you transitioned from your old litter super slowly? A veryyyy gradual switch is key to help avoid something like this.

[@thor9562]

I prefer scented cat litter especially when it does not smell food since they have corn, coffee and milk options.

[@dillyhaha]

@@thor9562does your cat prefer it?

[@thor9562]

@@dillyhaha yes they do. We only use bentonite for small kittens that I rescue. Will be trying chicken feeds as a cheaper alternative soon.

[@rise12071]

He hungry lol

[@Andro.d]

Ah damn I just got a lavender scented tofu litter because I thought the cats would love it, I really only bought it for my cats because I hate flower smells.

[@tuftandpaw]

Aw, your intentions were in the right spot! Prioritizing your cat's needs before your own is definitely the right way to go about it, but unfortunately cats are *much* more comfortable with unscented litters :( Maybe you could transition to an unscented variation afterwards

[@Andro.d]

@@tuftandpaw Definitely will do that!

[@whyamihereagain.a]

My cats love to dig their litter, i'd love to use tofu litter but can cat dig through it?

[@tuftandpaw]

Sure can! The particles are thin and lightweight so your cat can still easily move them around to cover their business.

[@whyamihereagain.a]

@@tuftandpaw thank you, your video is very helpful 😊

[@afiqfilmexp]

I bought an "original" flavour of tofu cat litter. But it smells too sweet. I don't know if it scented cat litter or natural tofu aroma. Maybe I should bring soy milk when I buy cat litter again...

[@twinklesvlog5043]

Can you try corn flour as cat litter

[@MaiBui-s1q]

The completion is what😂

[@smhunter17]

Nothing in the video covers whether or not this is clumping litter. If it's not clumping then how do I "select" and remove the urine soaked pellets? ( Eww gross just thinking about that. )

[@tuftandpaw]

Not all tofu litters are the same, but the one shown most in the video (Really Great Cat Litter) is a clumping litter :) You can just scoop the clumps once soiled.

[@mitho123]

I have tried tofu cat litter, and my cat and I loved it, but I found that it attracted gnats during hot weather. Anyone else?

[@rrxxnn6226]

Can kittens under 8 weeks use this?😊

[@tuftandpaw]

Yes! However, some kittens may be a little too interested in it and start eating it. Our own brand (Really Great Cat Litter) contains all safe ingredients and would be OK to ingest in small amounts, but it's certainly not recommended to let cats eat it in large quantities or over a large period of time. You could totally try it out, but if you notice your kitten nibbling away then maybe wait until they are a bit older to give it another shot ☺️

[@estronto]

Why does tofu cat litter doesn't clump my cat's "solids"? Its only good tom clump their pee, but its still sticks to the bottom of the litter box

[@roxannesmaldone3465]

I think Tofu should be sold in the Retail store.!

[@rainecolubio]

Where I live, it’s so much cheaper to get tofu cat litter than clay litter

[@tuftandpaw]

Oh amazing! That's not the case everywhere

[@anyrfa3793]

Since the tofu cat litter is naturally produced and thus easily mold, is that the reason why most tofu cat litter came in vacumm pack?

[@tuftandpaw]

Good question! The vacuum packed packaging is likely more to reduce breakage of the pellets in travel. The more the litter gets knocked around in the bag during transport, the more likely it'd be to get broken into smaller bits which would produce more dust and wouldn't be as good for tracking.

[@kindnessasgreatasthesea1158]

Hello! How is the odour control with tofu litter?

[@tuftandpaw]

Hi! It depends whether or not the type of tofu litter you're using includes some kind of odor eliminating ingredient, like activated charcoal 🙂

[@fauziahsaleh7490]

Trust me its not odour free, odour control, whatsoever. Im using Tofu/Soya litter for my cats already 4 months (and will not change it to other type of litter anymore). Its good clumping 5++stars, low dust and less tracking. But......... the smells of ammonia from urine, its very strong compared with bentonite litter. Need to clean it up twice a day so its ok. You gotta try. Its good tho 👍. I wont risk my cats to inhale dust from silica and bentonite. I just need to clean it often for Soya/Tofu litter.

[@Jjggaseven]

I thought you shouldn't mix litters?

[@mikaelfacelo7946]

Made a mistake of putting tofu litter without acclimating my cats to it. Thankfully their smarter than their furdad 😂 took a huge dump right after i placed the litter box

[@patriciatoomingtheplantpar2558]

$3.00 MINIMUM a pound! Cheapest I found $15 for 5 pounds! Pelletized horse bedding $7 for 40 pounds .18¢ a pound! This is not a minor expense increase and pelletized horse bedding doesn't need "special" storage!

[@roxannesmaldone3465]

My Cat tried Tofu cat litter. Its ok but expensive.

[@guitarlearningtoplay]

is that your favorite liter?

[@tuftandpaw]

We're bias, but we really think Really Great Cat Litter checks all of the boxes.

[@adnanshahriar8941]

well, can we eat it tho :3

[@MaiBui-s1q]

The earlier the betttet

[@peterhinton6423]

Awful stuff, clumps ok but does nothing to stop the smell. Still the best use of Tofu though...

[@tuftandpaw]

Have you tried multiple brands? Not all formulas are created equal! For example, some brands just add perfume to cover the smell up, whereas our formula contains charcoal, which helps to naturally eliminate odor. We've even made some more tweaks since launching it based on customer feedback and we're happy to say that we've dramatically improved the odor control in a short time.

[@theone5404]

As many soy fields around, tofu cat litter shouldn't be so expensive.

[@roxannesmaldone3465]

I Never flush my cats litter.

[@inge6280]

Not sure I want to be using cat litter that ingredient should really have been used for food

[@tuftandpaw]

It's made from the fibrous pulp that's left over from the production of common soy products, so it's actually a helpful step to try and reduce waste :)

[@roxannesmaldone3465]

I Dont flush litter!

[@roxannesmaldone3465]

[@nicolegamez2258]

Intriguing...I'm definitely interested but so much that claims to be flushable and isn't actually good for the plumbing system. I like the suggestion of looking for bigger pellets and the darker pellets with charcoal and no added coloring. The visual of how the pellets disintegrate in water makes me trust that it will flow properly. Thank you for the concerns with the susceptibility to mold if not stored in a cool dry place. #Contestfor100bucks @Tuft+Paw #PickMe😍
