Catit for senior cats
Catit doesn't make a dedicated "senior" range as such, so rather than pretend otherwise, here's the honest version: several products across the wider Catit line genuinely suit an older cat's changing needs, even without a senior label on the packaging, and it is worth knowing which ones and why.
What actually changes for an older cat
Reduced mobility, stiffer joints, and sometimes reduced eyesight are common as cats age, which changes what makes a litter tray, bed or toy genuinely comfortable to use — a high-sided tray or a demanding scratch post that suited a younger cat can become a real obstacle for an older one.
Hydration also matters more with age, since kidney health is a common concern in older cats and encouraging water intake is a simple, genuinely useful thing an owner can do alongside veterinary care.
Where a low-entry, easy-access product genuinely helps
A litter tray with a low entry point, rather than a high-sided or hooded design, is easier for a cat with stiffer joints to step into comfortably, and finer, softer litter substrates can be gentler on paws than coarser alternatives — worth considering if you notice your cat hesitating at the tray more than they used to.
Gentle enrichment — a simple treat ball or scratch pad rather than something demanding a lot of jumping or climbing — keeps an older cat mentally engaged without expecting the agility of a younger one, which matters for wellbeing even as physical activity naturally reduces with age.

Common questions
- Does Catit make a specific senior cat range?
- Not as a dedicated labelled range, no. But several products across the wider line — particularly low-entry litter trays and gentler enrichment items — genuinely suit an older cat's changing needs, which is why we've picked them out here rather than pointing you at a range that doesn't exist.
- What changes should I make for an ageing cat around the house?
- Easier access is the main theme — a lower-sided litter tray, softer bedding, and enrichment that doesn't demand much jumping or climbing all help an older cat with stiffer joints or reduced mobility stay comfortable and engaged.
- Why does hydration matter more for older cats?
- Kidney health is a common concern as cats age, and encouraging good water intake is a simple, genuinely useful thing to support alongside your vet's guidance. A water fountain or increased wet food in the diet can both help.
- Is it worth switching an older cat's litter type?
- If your cat seems to be hesitating at the tray or you notice signs of stiffness, a finer, softer litter and a lower-sided tray are worth trying, since coarse litter and a high step-over can be genuinely uncomfortable for a cat with joint stiffness.
