What is the difference between granular tofu litter and tofu pellet litter?
Here's a little about us
Natural Paw's sister company, ORI Graystone Natural, is launching an all-new granular tofu cat litter in January 2023 focused on serving pet parents with automatic self cleaning litter boxes. Using the same great all-natural plant based ingredients as Natural Paw's tofu cat litter, ORI is a small granular shape that can easily be sifted through your litter robot. ORI's granular litter is compatible with regular and sifting litter boxes, but it's designed specifically for automatic litter boxes.
How to choose my tofu litter?
- If you have a traditional litter box, get a 4pack of Natural Paw pellet tofu litter
- If you have a self-cleaning litter box, get a 4pack of ORI Granular Tofu Litter.
