Green tea in your litter box?

Yes, the green tea we add to our Green Tea Fresh cat litter makes our cat litter smell nice, but did you know it also helps control litter box odor?

Green tea contains a naturally occurring tannin called catechin which has astringents properties. Catechin’s astringent properties are so effective they were even used as a sterilizing agent in Japan’s O-157 (E. coli) bacteria epidemic in 1996. Studies continue today to identify a possible link between green tea and a reduction in cancer cases. In Shizuoka prefecture in Japan (the production center of green tea) there are significantly lower instances of cancer in the population. 

You have heard of the health benefits of green tea, but did you know green tea benefits extend well beyond? Green tea also works as an effective natural deodorizer! The same antioxidants in Green Tea that make it an effective astringent can also suppress the growth of bacteria in your cat’s litter box and bacteria is the primary source of cat box odors!

Green Tea Fresh cat litter is our most popular litter, but we’ve improved on a classic by increasing the amount of green tea, thus adding to its odor fighting power, and adjusted the formulation to improve clumping.
