About this episode
<p>What kind of cat litter is best for cats, owners and the environment?</p><p>After we looked at dog poo bags for an episode, it's only right that we answer some questions for the cat lovers, around cat litter. </p><p>Listener Ella got in touch to ask about it, after adopting her Sphynx indoor cat, Mr. Big (short for Mr. Bigglesworth). She wanted to know: what is the most absorbent cat litter that doesn't smell, doesn't cause problems for her floors when kicked out of the litter tray and might be better for the environment?</p><p>Greg Foot is joined by veterinary surgeon and author of the book What's My Cat Thinking? Dr. Jo Lewis – as well as engineer and former managing director of pet care company Bob Martin, Savi Madden – to get the inside scoop. </p><p>All of our episodes start with your suggestions.
