Step-by-Step Guide
Follow these steps to help your cat adjust to using crystal litter:
- Place the new litter box (containing the crystal litter) right next to your cat's current litter box.
- Allow your cat access to both boxes simultaneously.
- Keep both options available for your cat for at least one week.
- Take a few handfuls of your cat's old litter and add them directly into the new litter box with the crystal litter.
